You CAN Have Beautiful Things in the Forest- Cabin gets Epoxy Resin Tabletop. #205

I milled and built my cabin's cedar desk but it was soft and dented easily. Two part epoxy is so fun to pour that I decided to refinish this gorgeous table.

Your place looks amazing.
Don't ever sell it. Keep it for life.

The insight to the need for a table is great. You're so right it had me laughing.

The top looks great! Just an FYI for future pours, if you measure by weight, the ratio is 100A:83B. If you measure by volume, the ratio is 1:1 😀

Ryan! I found a cool wireless fence for the pooch. Check out “spot on”. Looks pretty good, works off of gps instead of a buried wire. Walk the boundary with the unit to set parameters, save and your pup is free to roam inside your set boundaries. It uses a collar so….. it’s an interesting choice. Good luck!

Love the pics on your wall above the table you did today!😊😊😊😊

If only the epoxy wasn't so darn expensive, I'd have dozens of my woodworking projects include the stuff!

Yaaa🎉 another video.Love your content. Thankfully you're getting better! Awesome news❤

Nice Ryan! MIca powders mixed with the epoxy make the pour interesting. Vibration will bring the bubbles up. That new sander laid upside down should do the job. Although it may take awhile. I did this once pouring pen blanks. However, the desk looks just beautiful. Glad your back is doing better.

Hello Ryan good to see you worked on some projects 👍💖🥰❤️💕🇺🇸🙏

Resin is self leveling. Get rid of bubbles with a heat gun. New sub here, love your humor!

[dennisbeaver]

Looks pretty good to me! Good to have you back!

[kellymckenzie]

I love how you figure out a way, and it turns out beautiful! Well done, it’s so enjoyable watching ❤

RYAN looks great there I love the shining glassy look there on the desk !!! It is a work of ART there in my eyes !!!

Love your work. 81 year old from Australia.

What I have found works well with notty cedar is a sealing coat using an acid brush for the deep holes and a foam brush for the top surface. Do this first, let it set, then do your top coat pour spread with a spatula and let it self level. Use a heat gun to remove bubbles. I really like your channel. Keep up the awesome content!

I have an idea, make a table and use colored resin. I would like to see that video. Also I can watch endless sewing videos, I'm in to quilting. Glad you're taking care of your back.
