    Young Andris is on another level , I'm addicted to Andy Camarata , Diesel Creek and Derek Bieri , but this young gentleman is on another level , the humour is hilarious , the accent , mannerisms , attitude to authourity, super Mum , super Auntie & Neighbours is up lifting to say the least , this young man , by being himself is someone you'd like to be a neighbour with . This young man deserves to be up there wth the big boys.

    Man I have not sleep, it is a little after 12 noon for me in my time zone and I just finished watching "Jesse Muller" 1 hour long video that he posted about 4 hours ago. I was getting ready to go to bed and I see this, Ants Pants with 1 hour long video, man I guess I am not going to bed yet, I need another cup of coffee and some biscuits. I am strong I know I can make it! Hopefully "Andrew Camarata" does not decide to post a video right after I am done watching this one.
    BTW, What's up Ants! good to see you again!

    Andris, when you mix epoxy, you have to stir it softly as to not incorporate additional bubbles into the epoxy. The first coat had more initial bubbles because you shook the 2 parts together. When mixing epoxy, it’s best to slowly stir it with a stick, or any method which does not incorporate air into the epoxy. Well done. It looks great. Unfortunately the epoxy will scratch and won’t stay pretty for long. Knowing you, it will stay nice for .0000001 seconds…. 😊

    The best shop-vac tip I ever got was given to me by a commercial dry-waller; Buy a pack of swimming pool "scum socks". Take a sock and put it over your filter once it's clean and attached to the shop vac. Next time you have to clean the shop vac..just take the scum sock off and put a new one on. The filter will still be clean enough that you don't have to blow it out.

    Great work Ant, your videos are always worth the wait no matter how long they are.
    What some viewers will not appreciate is just how much work goes into making these videos. The camera works, setting each shot up, even the stop starts, and changing batteries, video memory cards, and in some cases, locations. It all takes time.
    Then, there is the editing, which takes a really long time. All of this while trying to spend time with your wonderful family. Juggling RUclips time with family time and your job, it's not easy, and some viewers should remember this before leaving unfair comments.
    I know I've mentioned this before probably 2 years ago, but when you are doing something in your workshop that causes a lot of dust, you really do need to cover up your tools and other stuff. It will save you so much time, cleaning time, time you don't always have. Sorry, that was a lot of time.😂
    I like the improvements to your bench and the way you overcame attaching the angle iron. It's a great idea, my idea. I did something similar once about 15 years ago to the edges of 140+ concreat steps in a school. The stick on anti-slip lengths just peeled off, making it dangerous to walk up and fown the stairs.
    So, i came up with the same idea as you, but my angle iron had an anti-slip design built into each length on one side when it was made in the foundry. Then, a self levelling mix, similar to apoxy, was pored to level off each step to within 2mm of the top of each steel strip, and it's still standing strong as of 3 months ago when i attended the schoolto give thrm a quotefor another job we started last week. This time, we are building two new steel fire escapes 18 metres tall.
    As for the apoxy fill. What you should have done is use a specialised apoxy first coat. It's called deep pour. It reaches into the depths of the smallest of holes, cracks, and crevices to seal up and prevent any air from coming through the rock, concreteor morta. Then you could have used quick dry pour, which would have had zero air bubbles.
    You should watch videos by 'Total Boat' on RUclips. They are providers of everything apoxy and know about different techniques, what and where to use differenttypes of apoxy. Drying times per coat and what or how to achieve the best finish. Remember that for next time.
    So what's next? When are you going to start building your new wooden sawmilling shed? We're in May already, and you said you would start it in the spring of this year. So what's stopping you?
    See you next week, Ant, enjoy the rest of your weekend.👍😁🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿⚒️

    I think for all the types of things you do on the bench I would cover it in steel with a drop front. So much easier to clean up and pretty hard to damage. Since you have a dedicated wood shop it really makes sense. There is a reason for that type of cover even over wood benches in metal shops and mechanic's worksurfaces. On top of the concrete which gives it weight the metal works perfectly.

    If you have a leaf blower use it to blow the dust out of your shop. It will move a lot more air to clean out the dust. Grind any old welds and leave the table the way it is for a welding table or a place you need to work on things that would ruin the epoxy table top.

    Spray all surfaces with 99% Isopropyl alcohol before pouring epoxy.

    Lay the glue sticks, then heat the steel. Might work.
