Super AWESOME job Jon. It looks amazing. I loved your process lots of work but results show the effort is worth it. Thank you for sharing.

This is one of those rare videos I wish I could like multiple times. I have some rounds and I've never done epoxy before this is exactly what I needed.

Did you progress up in your grit as you sanded?

That's a beautiful slab of tree!! Nicely done Bud, entertaining and informative as always!!☻

Hey Jon, Fantastic method! I just poured the 1/8th finish coat on a pecan burl moments ago. I sure wish I had seen your video on this process before hand. The dust is just awful. I have more work ahead of me now to fix the problem. I will definitely be utilizing your technique on my next piece. Thank you for sharing! JC

Hint: Use vinegar instead of acetone for clean up. Vinegar removes the stickiness off your hands if you get it on you. Old boat builder trick.

Wow what a beautiful piece of wood! You did an amazing job! Thanks for the video.

You might consider using a lower viscosity sanding sealer and white glue to start with. The white glue will settle lower into the wider cracks and the sanding sealer will take care of the rest. Both products dry clear. The sanding sealer can also be applied via a sprayer, which would be great against the bark. At this point, you’d be able to use your wipe on poly first, followed by a thin coat of epoxy. Most of your sanding would be at first.

It just amazing me how it goes from the sanded look to the clear...sanded it just looks ruined... and then..bam..its crystal clear....
I have those sanding pads as well.. they work great! The slab looks fantastic!! Enjoyed the seeing this process and especially the up close shot of that awesome beer light🤠👍 thank ya Mr. Jon!

What grit did you sand too before applying the wipe on poly? And was this done with the yellowing sanding block I couldn’t tell what grit you used? Thanks.

I'm finishing up a tree stump table and I have enjoyed watching your process, thank you. 3M thanks you too $1, 800 later for the PAPR but I really appreciate you introducing it to me! I am curious why you don't just leave the epoxy resin top as final coat. Why the wipe on poly?

These videos are quite amazing and I can't imagine how much production time goes into them. Great flow, super interesting and entertaining. Gorgeous artistry all around. Loving your channel!

John, really enjoyed this video. I've been looking for a finish process on a very big heavy pine table I made. I don't like the plastic look either. Wipe on poly discolored the "blue pine" to a greenish mold look! I've ordered the material you used and will be testing your process out. Thanks for sharing.

Question! Why did you not add in the BARK on the repaired wedge to match? You had a sacrificial cookie to use. Just wondering....

[waynecreech]

I liked it with the piece you cut out.... looked like Taylor Ham!

[pedromq]

Amazing, I was stacked with an end grain slab that a customer never finished, quite a project.. testing everywhere.. I didn't know how to finish.. this is the way. Thank you.

P.S: no shake polyurethane ;)

Beautiful table. Roy "wood" not have used power tools or a mask. LOL I use to like the The Woodwright's Shop. I remember one episode and could not help notice he had band aides on most his fingers. By the end of most shows sweet pouring down his forehead. Thanks for the video.

I got two words for you...
HOME RUN...just nature at its best...
two questions...does it scratch easy and if it does get scratched can you just put another top coat on...
just beautiful👍👍👍
