Lyndsy here. Thank you for explaining the tools and secrets involved in making your table. I'm taking notes to start making my own. Mahalos
Cheers!
This is a valuable addition to my woodwork collection ruclips.net/user/postUgkxbnOKZBE4evMO5V2vroHeCjq6d_MV6wJO I still will rate this woodwork plan as the best in my reference library. It always seem to stand out from the rest whenever you go through the library. This is a masterpiece.
Brian: I love your videos. They've been helping me stay sane during this weird time.
Try and hold it together Brian!
Yea great video mate, the possibilities using resin are endless just wish the price came down a little. Still enjoying the interest, just brought a 200amp welder and looking a some black smiths forge
I watched all the way to the end. I enjoy your videos.
Really enjoy watching these..
Might make one someday 😍
Really nice work
Extremely good voice over
Thanks bud!
love this and all your work
Thanks Brian!
Austine (Nigeria) Really informative video... Thanks for the insight. Got a little question, will white glue be appropriate for sealing the form?
Stephen of The Palazzi’s Custom Creations here- my question is this: does the Alex caulk alleviate any and all leaks and what do you do in the even of a leak springing to save the project from disaster. This is my main fear of building bigger forms. I’ve been using a mold from crafted elements for my charcuterie boards but I’m ready to move on to bigger projects 😊
Great video. Any tips of mixing epoxy plus coloring it?
Thank you
Thanks for the video. I am building a 5' ROUND table with end-grain wood slices from a Sugar Pine that had died. 24" slices!. Unfortunately, not a lot of 5' wide melamine, nor have I found a shop with a 60" wide belt sander. Questions: Shop temperature for epoxy hardening.....any effects of altitude on drying?
Thanks Cam, awesome mate.
Thanks Ian!
nice video! is it hard to get the caulk off the table at the end? or do you sand off the remaining? thank yoo!
Simple question, do you lay the wood top side down in the mold ?
Top-up
Randy Robinson: I have struggled to get a water-tight seal using caulk. I put a good bead inside and out, let it dry overnight, and still it leaked thru. I use Liquid Glass epoxy resin. Have you had that problem? What can I do?
Amy. Hello! Great work, awesome that you were able to use that wide belt sander. Will definitely have to search for that. A friend of mine suggested to put a small layer of epoxy down before placing the wood into the mold. Will that make a difference? Also about what temperature is your garage at?
I don’t do that. And varies by the season
Hello. Do you spray the mold release the night before (while waiting for the caulk to dry), or do you apply it right before the pour?
Either way works
Johnny here. I've used mold release on a test epoxy mold but the melamine stuck to the epoxy in multiple areas. I noticed that you spray on the mold release then used what appears to be a paper towel to buff in or wipe in the mold release. Is using the paper towel the secret?
It’s necessary. So maybe that’s the secret!
Casper, great looking table. I can't wait to see it finished! What do you use for round molds?
Wait for a couple weeks! Just came up with a perfect mold.
Chris here,
I bet he kerfs a long strip of melamine.
Hello I have started a new river table business here in Ohio and I was wondering what’s the best way to generate high-end clients that can afford these type of tables? What kind of marketing should I use?
I’d say just make nice stuff and document it
I have an extensive question/conundrum with a project.
I’m a Firefighter and my crew and I are building a firehouse dinner table. We are well into it and I have just found your RUclips channel. I wish I had found you two months ago...
I am realizing that we have made quite a few mistakes/things we should have done... oh well at this point. I was hoping for some advice on how to proceed since we have significant time and money involved as well as our names/reputations on this table that will long outlast our careers.
We built a metal frame for the table and dropped it into the frame before we did the epoxy. I see we have done the exact opposite of what you have done with the way you build yours... 🤦🏻♂️ We did hand painted, hand turned gold leaf graphics for a custom emblem on top. We are at the point of pouring a final pour to cover the gold leaf artwork but was not sure how to proceed with getting the final edge around the table. I know we have done things not the way you do or would recommend but at this point I was hoping for out of the box thinking on how to make this look as good as possible and to hopefully save the project.
Oh dang! I have no idea what your question is though. Just things didn’t go well.
Do you have a contact that I can send a picture?
Can you hand sand the wood
I can’t. Maybe you can
Josh here, I am about to do my first pour and already have most of the material to make the mold out of MDF. Would this be a mistake?
Mother of god yes. I can’t imagine a worse material. Definitely wrap it in tape if you use it
@@BlacktailStudio oh my lordy, mdf, Im with you blacktail studio. I would go as far as making a new mold, but hey, thats just me, bust of luck jmanworks.
How to mix epoxy and hardner plz tell me
Check my latest video
Milo here, I can't imagine people not watching all the way through on all of your videos as they are all fascinating, well spoken and concise.
You have more faith than me Milo! Strong name by the way
Agree they are relaxing to watch the same with guitar making videos also.
@@BlacktailStudio 👍👍
@@BlacktailStudio ballpark price on jus the wood n epoxy?? Thank you if you have time to reply, understand if not. Love the quality builds and vids!!
@@trump45and2zig-zags it depends on what type of wood as to price some of the older looking slabs or cookies can be quite price but walnut (just plain ol walnut) meshes BEAUTIFULLY with dark epoxy 😊
Marcel, I started watching videos like these to soothe my battle with anxiety and depression. From the first video I saw of yours over a year ago I’ve looked forward to your next one. For that I’m grateful. Thanks
Ps: liked the grain in this one. 👍🏼
That’s so cool to hear Marcel
Yes Cam has such a great monolog... And somehow calming..... 😉
AJ here, I’ve probably watched this video 20 times in the past couple of days. Doing my first ever Epoxy resin table this week. It’s going to be a Christmas present for my wife and the kitchen table in our home. Can’t thank you enough for making this video, it’s been invaluable and giving me the confidence to attempt such a large project. Wish me luck!
year later, so how did it go? 😀
Hello my name is Karri, I just recently bought a Wood-Mizer Sawmill. I just cut my 1st 2 logs(1-
cedar & 1-Cyprus)I’m going to make a table. Hopefully mine look good as yours
James, do you ever make a table with clear epoxy or is it always tinted?
Justin - yep +1 here - also wondering if clear has ever been attempted. I’ve heard the epoxy can yellow over time if it’s perfectly clear.
David. I am curious as well. I did a clear epoxy on top of my black table top for a layer of protection, but I noticed you can see the tiniest of scratches.
I have seen clear Epoxy table online which very nice! I don't know if Cam has done it yet...
From Eric in Upstate New York..
I've been building live edge/rustic furniture for a number of years bow but am still experimenting with epoxy. I have to say that this is probably the best video I've ever seen on RUclips. Your descriptions and guidance are easy to understand and very accurate. I'm glad I found your channel!
Wow, thanks so much
Of all the epoxy video content creators out there, you definitely explain the most thoroughly and your projects are beautiful and seem made to last - it's definitely inspiring! Since I found your content about a month ago, I was inspired to start creating, though on a smaller scale at first. Just started casting my first 2 charcuterie boards. I'm not brave enough to try anything bigger just yet...
Thanks josh!
@@BlacktailStudio you inspired me to start, my garage is embarrassing and my tools are limited lol I got some black walnut😂
Brent in Brazil, Cam, I can never get enough of your videos. Thank you for taking the time to do them for us! I am always at my desk when you upload them. I stop what I am doing to watch! Keep it up!
That’s awesome to hear Brent!
GOD BLESS THE METRIC SYSTEM!
Eric: I've no question, just thanks for the video.
I’ll take it Eric!
Chris here, how do you clean your containers and buckets after mixing epoxy?
Hi my name is scott i live in hull i 37 i got my level 1 carpentry and joinery but nothing came of it making them table tops with biscuit tool id love to marster that please messege bk is there a course i can do thank you
Where do you go to too get your mold release . I love your work . I also learn a lot from you because you don't mind ex planing.
Hi! What can be used in place of the spray so that the project doesn't adhere to the mould itself. Can we use plaster ? I mean regular sticking tape?
Tyvek tape works well
Thanks for the video! Wish i had access to a larger than 13" planner lol
Please can u let me come along and be right hand man making them tables i want to use and learn how to sharpern so my joints look professionally 😊😊please help man i have bipolar and need to get onto a course doing exacly what u just did with table
Hello😊😊
I've been watching your videos for months now and appreciate your helpful tips and tricks. I was wondering if you have built your own HDPE moulds from HDPE 4x8 sheets? I'm considering doing that because the molds last longer and can be used multiple times. I know you mentioned not building the same size often enough and I can understand that but do you have a size that you find being built more often than other sizes? Could that be one you would make a stronger longer lasting mold for?
I absolutely love this channel. I've heard you say about talking but realized we like hearing the narration. What you do is art and to have someone who can tell us his process and what your thinking was, one takes balls bc I know for me I've never liked hearing my own voice bc I am not used to it. You've created a channel from the ground up and I'm sure I'm not the only one that would love to begin as you once did. That said wanting to and actually doing it is a big difference. The tools alone are so expensive, but everyone has to start somewhere. Thank you for sharing your art with us. I like how honest you are, it builds trust with the viewers. You aren't afraid to make fun of yourself especially when lifting stuff. I believe you said this, but you had no experience with tables or woodworking, epoxy etc? Or had you had some experience? When you first started your RUclips channel was there ever a time you thought in the very beginning you weren't gonna get enough views and doubted yourself? Having the space to work plus the tools are so expensive but everyone has to start somewhere. Thank you for sharing what you do. Screw the trolls, I give anyone credit who has the balls to come on RUclips take a chance and believe in themselves. Some people give up the minute they hear some mean people out there not understanding how hard it is to put yourself out there like you've done. Thank you for sharing what you do.
Shaun - thankful for your videos. Just finished my first live edge epoxy table!
I have a question... How long do you wait after removing the table from the melamine mold to getting the table planed?
Jonathan:Cam: It would be great to see you do a table from start to finish with basic tools.
Hi, thanks for the explanation, would be happy for some help here.
I just finished making my mold, noticed it’s a bit of a bowl from inside when I put it empty on a flat surface, really just slightly curved and has a belly from the bottom side. I’m gonna pour 20 liters of epoxy river with 4.5cm thickness, do you think the epoxy will make it flat by it’s weight? also add to it the slab+some clamps.
Thanks!
Epoxy won’t make it super flat. Clamps is a good idea
Hi. My name is Aqil. I live in Cape Town, South Africa. I really enjoy your video's. I would like to start a hobby and I have been thinking about epoxy tables. Thank you.
Hey there So just wanted to give readers/watchers a heads up. As a certified associate at Home Depot to cut on the panel saw, these cuts are not guaranteed an exact measurement. They are meant to only be rough cuts. Associates do try their best, especially when people approach them with respect. There's a lot of people out there that abuse Home Depot associates. It's not nice. As my grandma always used to say, "Honey attracts flies much better than vinegar.. I used to tell Grandma I didn't want flies!🤣 But hopefully you get the point. Be nice to the associates, they are often pulled in multiple directions from customers, they don't always have the training for something you need help on, and I don't know about all stores; however, every HD associate I ever met has been a pretty good person. Just take time to ask them how they're doing and if they're already helping somebody else, before you start trying to get an answer for something you're there for.
Paul can I epoxy over self adhesive vynle pictures
Don’t see why not
Any reason why you don't use the Tyvek tape I see everyone else using?
Don’t need it. Causes an uneven surface
Amber... I've been planing on a similar project and glad I watched your video. Very informative. Thanks! The table is gorgeous!
Jocelyn Here Thanks so much for sharing! I'm going to attempt my first resin table. Starting small but starting!
Hey, great work! Just wanted to know it the mold can be made of mdf or something else other than melamine. Keep up the good work!

Ray Gee,
Hi, I’ve watched a few of you videos for help in the past, thank you much for providing help.
I am having trouble making a mold for table/ shelf. We have followed all the instructions but are still getting leaks. I’ve let the mold dry for a week and have tested them with water; thank god. But I’ve built it twice, tried cutting our selves first then had Home Depot cut. We have DAP Alex fast dry caulk. Just wondering what else can be done. Have caulk under, inside, outside and have used a lot. I’m totally lost.
Ric Smith Custom Woodcraft, Hye, Texas I build furniture of Texas native woods, mostly mesquite. I’ve been doing this for twenty plus years. For the short time you’ve been doing this, you’ve done great. I wish I had access to the wonderful wood you have. Keep up the good work!
TSK great video we are going to do an out door kitchen in Michigan will the epoxy last in the Michigan climate??
I wouldn’t trust an outdoor table
Blacktail Studio Thanks for your fast reply I was afraid of that we have to go with cement poured in place with stain and sealant
Less you have a better idea
Gary here. Very basic question(s) from a rookie. When you pour our epoxy, are you covering the wood, as well as the voids, with the epoxy and if so, does that epoxy on top of the wood get planed off. It boils down to, when you are putting the finish on your table (Rubio?) is that product putting a finish on the epoxy, or the wood or both? Thank you in advance. Gary
Chris here.
What temperature would you recommend to a pour in? What would be to cold to be more specific? I'm in pretty cold upstate NY and although I can and do heat my garage I usually don't heat it for several days. My wood boiler that is out there tends to keep the garage around 50*-60*. Just not sure if this would be to cold for the epoxy to cure properly, etc.. Thx in advance.
Anthony , ✌🏻 have you ever tried formwork ply ? It is coated and designed to be used multiple times with release oil I saw the chipboard broke apart and was stuck in places, it’s expensive but maybe you could make forms and keep them in each size rather than they fall apart after a few tries , anyway great video I’m hoping to make myself a nice deal in a few weeks and maybe start selling them ✌🏻
I enjoyed the step by step framing of your project. I have a small project of an RV table.....2' 2" by 3' 2". It was only lacquered and sunlight and daily washing has cracked the surface. I thought epoxy would be the way to go....but looks pretty entailed. Would you just pour epoxy on the top....or extend it down the side?
Zan, from Alberta. Love your work. Question, I am making a little table top, 15x18 in, and am thinking to use mylar that I already have, staple it in place on the plywood I have for the base (covered with heavy plastic, and seal it with the caulk. Would I still need the mold release? Thanks in advance.
Something tells me I'm going to do a headpalm here, but I have a small desk that is going to be 41.5" w by 22" d This would seem to be making the bottom of the form 43.5 + .75+.75 by 24+.75+.75. This leads to a 45" by 25.5" base. If I attach the sides at the edges of the base, as in the video, won't the form be 2 inches too big? I'm sure I'm being a dummy, but that's one of my core competencies... 8^)
Sharon - What brand of epoxy would you recommend for a totally clear table that will not yellow?
Any epoxy can yellow
Hello my name is Nilka. This video is very helpful. I'm new to river tables and have been struggling. Thank you for sharing.
Tara here, I stumbled upon your video and love how detailed you are but not slow in delivering the details. If that makes sense. I am wanting to make a table but not have any wood on it. Like a clear iridescent table. I am thinking completely out of Epoxy or Resin, I could be mistaken on what I am calling it. I am a beginner and I may have chose to big of a project for my first project but hey go big or go home right.. haha. I was just wondering have you ever done one like that ? or Is it possible? I'm shooting for like a coffee table/end table kind of size...Thank you and I enjoyed your video...
D.J.Y. here.
DAAAAAAAMN, what a lovely job. Thank you. I got a nice piece of sycamore for free, that I'm going to practice on before I do all the walnut. I'm also hoping to find a local commercial planer---with all these tiny sawmills around here, (Maryland) hope there are some commercial shops too.
Hello Cam, Really enjoy your videos. I am making a cedar coffee table and it has some soft wood that I have removed. My plan is to epoxy to fill all of the voids but I would like to keep a live edge on 2 of the sides. Can I caulk the edge I want to leave live and clamp the bottom tight as well as clamping the melonine to the cut sides? I plan to cut the edges once the epoxy dries. Just wondering if it would leak anyway no matter how much caulk or clamping. Thanks
Thanks for all the amazing content! I followed your videos and successfully pulled off a pretty amazing tigerwood dining table, but now I’m onto my epoxy river pour walnut desk and I have a question about the mold..
You recommend adding 2” to each dimension for the interior of the mold… now what? There’s either a 1” gap around the wood, or if I push the wood to the edges then there’s a larger gap in the middle than intended. Either way it seems like wasted epoxy and $$. My mold is built but I haven’t poured the epoxy yet.
2nd question: What do you do to get all of the excess epoxy off of the sides? I think I’ve only ever seen you run it through that wide belt sander, but never the equivalent task on the sides.
Thanks!
Love you video. Just finished making a mold with wood and lined it with mat tape and caulking. Super nervous for the poor. It’s for my friends coffee table 58” x 30. 2.5 inch thick. First time doing a piece this big. Suggestions on the mold?
Where do you find the wood insert like you have here to complete resin tables like these? 🤔
I doubt places like Lowes/Home Depot/Menards have epic wood slabs at their stores like the one you've got here. May we have some ideas?
I'm in Illinois - not sure if that may help or not.
What was definitely insightful was seeing the process of your making this and how much epoxy resin is needed for just this size of table... let alone an eye opener too! 😮😅
Jon here. Thank you for your videos. I am about to start my 1st ever expoy pour. Wanting to male a dining room table. I am using Western Red Cedar, 2 inch thick. Thinking about a finish size of 96x42 inches. Thinking of a river style since I have 2 sister slabs. What colors would you suggest with the cedar and would you go thicker on the finish coat to seal it for food use?
First off, great video! My question is, you added 0.75x2 on both the length and width walls. Since two of the sides are going to be placed inside the other, is it necessary to account for the 0.75x2 on all 4 walls, I thought just 2 of walls should account for this increase. Thanks
@Cam Great video mate! Just curious as to how much alcohol ink I should use to get the darkest black possible? Is there a rule of thumb that I can follow per the amount of ML/L of epoxy resin used? How much would say 50ml of Jet black alcohol ink get me if I want a super dark black resin? Cheers!
Greetings from Ray in Chicago, I’m currently working on 26FT commercial lunch table we’re using using sycamore and I plan to use the scraps to make a 4X6 or 6X6 table
Hey Cam !I’m Matthew. Thank you for the video. My question is how would you go about flattening a coffee table if you didn’t have that awesome shop? Router sled? Would that damage the epoxy with that large of a bit? Thank you
Hello from PA, I'm D'Juan. Awesome video! I want to make a coffee table and 2 end tables for myself. Any tips? Greatly appreciated!
Hi, my name is Helen ( even though it says Sam ) I use to live in Gresham Oregon so I'm familier with the area. I grew up south of Salem. I appreciate your videos as I just found your page. I'll check out more since I'm subscribed. 🤙💯
Lorelie - I have worked with epoxy on a small scale for quite some time but not yet on a large project like that gorgeous table (and all of your work that I have watched thus far - btw that void- gorgeous). Anyway back to the question - why cant you like your frame with vapor barrier plastic sheet - I keep thinking epoxy doesn't stick to it so why wouldn't it work in lieu of the typical steps I see people taking when doing tables? I am sure there is a super smart answer but I can't come up with it and before I start my first large scale (for me) project I thought it best to ask the expert Thanks for your time and videos
Hey there! I'm Jonathan. Great videos sir! I've just started watching your videos and am wanting to get into this. Do you need much woodworking experience/knowledge before getting I to this? Plus, how do you clean the buckets and other containers you use?
Your videos are extremely helpful. Doing my first epoxy pour, I think it is coming out well. I'm using Ice Cast Deep pour on a river table. How long do I have to wait to take out of the mold and start planing and sanding?
At 6:50ish when explaining the sanding of the edges you mentioned a word I'm not familiar with. Also I have never made one of these beautiful tables but I have researched in depth before I decide to stick my toes in the water so to speak. Could you please get back with me on the word you used and it's meaning Thank you so much for this wonderful video. It was not boring, drawn out, and didn't skip anything. I really appreciate that. I'm going to get my husband to build me a mold. Well one day lol
John Hutto, wichita ks . i am working on my first table like this and want to incorporate LED lights so the table top will glow . any sugestions?
Morning! I've just started doing these projects as I have time on my hands and don't do well sitting idol. I did make a small epoxy charcuterie board as an initial project to see how everything worked. I'm quite happy but had two air bubbles on each side where the live edge must of released air bubbles during the curing process. What epoxy do you use to seal the islands of wood and live edges to prevent this? Thanks for your time.
Hey, I’m a new apoxy live edge table builder. And I’m having trouble finding good apoxy. Is there a good website or location I can go to to find things like apoxy, and the coloring, etc. much appreciated
Hey Donovan! Thanks for putting up content to show us amateurs. I am doing a river pour on a 10' table. How do you recommend making the mold since the panels are 8' long? Seal the seam at the 8' mark with tape? Thanks much.
Barbie D- Wow, my first video. I can't wait for more. I make charcuterie boards and did my own dining room table, but just pour over the live edge pieces. Want more info... Will watch more.
Hi I have a question regarding the Mold. Do you have a number I can call you at? It's my first behind a sofa table pour. Appreciate it.
Cheers

Zona, I stumbled across one of your other videos earlier today and to be honest I don't usually watch the whole video but kinda skip through them. Your videos though! I completely watched it and I subscribed. I've wanted to do a resin table for awhile now, but I am teaching myself all the things I need to know. I'm starting with learning resin and little things, making tons of mistakes, learning along the way. Your videos are entertaining to me, but no nonsense too, and I really appreciate it. (I am looking forward to your 3 hour video of making a table from start to finish!)
Enrique here, just starting out on this new hobby and was wondering what types of material you use in your molds. I was planning on making a cylindrical cast for a couple things and was thinking of using PVC. I'd love to get your thoughts on this.
Thank you
Mike.
. how long do you wait for the resin to dry before removing the mold... 1.5" pour and I am using Total Boat Thickset.
Thanks
Sal…. Question; with the smaller pieces, what do you think about these reusable silicone molds sold on Amazon and like places? They are pricey, but so is laminated ply wood.
My name is Candace, and I watched this video mainly to learn how to build an epoxy mold for sample projects before I work on my big project which is a penny floor. Any advice for me for molds?
Hi and thanks for the video tutorial. Jason Wilson, Missoula, Mt. Did you have a large round insert in that pour? Was there other objects as well? Couldn’t tell from the angle of the video. Great info for the form build!
Kieron Monahan. Thanks for this Cam, I want to make some cutting boards before I make our dining table but I want to make different sizes and those ready made molds are expensive. Off to HD to get the supplies.
Jarred from Portland Or. Thanks so much for the awesome video. Just found you online and subscribed. What wood works shop did you go to? I couldn't find it on google. I look forward to watching more of your videos
Home Depot no longer will cut melamine boards (at least the one in San Jose won’t). I cut it outside the store with a portable circular saw, making sure I’d brought lengths of 2x4 to raise it above the ground.
Alison here. This video is actually how I found your channel as I'm very new to this and wanted ideas for making large molds. My question is this: will MFD work as well or is melamine a better choice?
In the video you say you like to add 1-2 inches per side to allow for cutdown but in the video it looks like the slab is snug up against the walls of your mold all the way around. Do you also try and have a tight fit between the slab and mold wall or is it better to have an inch or so of epoxy all the way around and then cut it down? Sorry if that wasn’t super clear.

G'Day
I am looking at planning a Table with drink coasters, it will be fairly large, we have about 200 coasters but may have to cull the worst of them.
Questions i have
Do you have to treat the drink coasters before you put them in the resin?
Would you do a double pour, by that i mean, pour some put the coasters in then pour more over the top or is it best to have a timber base attach the coasters then do a resin pour over that?
Thanks
Yanick here, Hi I've a question though. Can you use epoxy as final finish as well ? Or should it be some wax finish or something. ?
Dave. Love your videos. I’m still in the process of my first table process, hence watching this video. I have a question on whether to place the desired finished side Up or Down when preparing to pour?
