I showed my husband the start of your video and said “this guy is good you should watch with me” he said “but it’s almost half an hour!” He was sucked in after the first few minutes and I think you now have another subscriber 😂 I think your table should be called “meltwater” as it reminds me of a glacial river.

    PhD in polymer engineering here; you're absolutely correct about the shape memory effect around 18:50. When the epoxy was heated above its glass transition temperature during the sun-assisted shaping stage, the residual stresses in the area around the clamp were "locked in" after it cooled back down. When you sanded it that area was likely heated back above the glass transition temperature and was able to relax again, leaving telltale markings from the clamp due to the shape memory effect!

      @@BlacktailStudio Hijacking this comment thread to tag you. With my extremely limited education in my department of mechanical and materials engineering, I do know of the fact that epoxy can be altered to behave in the way you describe in the video.
      With a high strain inducing plastic deformation (the clamp) being released near the glass transition temperature (usually that a lot higher than 40C but in some cases it can be low) the "permanent" shape is set at the high temp, then when allowed to cool it will take on a "temporary: shape. However, this "permanent" shape is typically only recovered when heated back up to temperatures closer to what the experienced during its formation.
      I don't believe that event had ever occurred, the only thing I can think of is the sanding, polishing, buffing processes producing large amounts surface heat, thereby replicating those conditions. It's unlikely though.
      It's more likely that the strain was so excessive that the clamp stamped a shape really deep in there but it would be hard to see without the polished finish. Hard to say.
      en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shape-memory_polymer
      edit. Did you shine a UV light on it for a long period of time? UV can induce this kind of shape rebound as well.

My only issue is that I feel like stuff will slide off easily since it's so curved, so it would really have to be more of a conversation piece than a functional table, which is TOTALLY FINE. For me, though, I would just rather have the more functional table.

    Can’t possibly decide between old and new end table. They are both just too cool. The new belongs in George Jetson’s house! The old one makes you feel warm and fuzzy. The new one puts you in a trance looking for the meaning of the cosmos! Amazing work. Thanks so much for sharing your imagination with us.

    I actually love both tables! The epoxy and the Zebra wood give off a futuristic vib while the older table has an ancient," passed down for generations" feel about it. I would be proud to display either table in my home. Amazing work and results.Bravo!

    New end table is awesome! Don’t pay any attention to the individuals that say you are not a true woodworker. You are a high caliber artisan that uses wood as a medium. Anyone can make plain and simple wood projects, but a true artist like yourself is on a much higher level. Love your channel and all the cool projects and content you provide.

    New. You should name the Table after your wife, she seemed to have a pretty big influence on it and I’m sure she’d be flattered to have such an awesome table named after her(or super offended that you’d compare her to a table, there’s always a gamble). This is definitely one of my favorite works you’ve done so far and I’m stoked asf to see what you do with the mammoth tusk

  • @susancastillo3290

    I really hate it when someone comments you aren’t a real woodworker. I have gotten the commitment a few times that I am not a real artist because I don’t show my art in a gallery. I don’t listen to them and you shouldn’t either. You are great at what you do the labels don’t matter. Keep creating and being curious. I honestly love both but I am mainly a wood gal so I like the old but my hubby would love the new. So if we were in the market for a new side table we would probably compromise on the new since you put wood with it. 😂 gotta compromise when your married 😂

  • @Qunyx.

    • @OrangeC7
      @OrangeC7 Год назад +4

      Yeah I'm looking at that and there must not be much usable space on the new one. Still absolutely beautiful piece though, and for an end table you probably don't need that much table space anyways.

    It's usually hard for me to sit all the way through these long wood working videos, even when the end product is very unique or beautiful. Not sure why, but a lot of channels just don't do it for me. This was one of the few times I was actually very interested and sat through the whole thing. I think your commentary really adds a lot to the video! What a lovely table.

    New! I’m sorry that there are people out there who don’t think you’re a “real woodworker”. Surely the definition of a woodworker is someone who works with wood. You may not be a master craftsman woodworker, or a master resin worker, but the stuff you produce is stunningly amazing. You, sir, are an Artist and true artists push the boundaries of the mediums they use to create their art. You’ll reach 2 million subscribers shortly, I’m sure. I’ve only got 230, but I’m amazed that that many people like my content. You do you and ignore the naysayers.

    NEW - I have to say that I have never in my life seen anyone that is as meticulous about absolutely every step of the process as you are. I am from Winnipeg, Canada. I am a 60 year old somewhat handicapped man that has been playing around with wood/epoxy projects for about a year and a half. Due to our climate, my disability and my very limited work space, I can only dream of gaining some of the skill that you demonstrate in every build of yours that I have watched. This project blew my mind as I'm sure many others as well. I'm going to enroll in your tutorials in the coming weeks, in hope of aquiring enough pointers to make a project that I can be proud of. Thank you for being such an inspiration. Sincerely; Dan.

      I'm amazed at your talent. A gift from G.j of that you've worked at through discipline and I'm going to stretch here a bit but tedious hours and tenacity brought you here. Name her something elegant as her. She deserves it. What's your wife's name again? Her high bar is what you work to impress. A perfect match by viewing your whole process. I know you'll never read this but it's my honest thought. I'm subscribing today. After being on RUclips for many years I've not hit that sub button. The like button yes the dislike many more. You're an artist, only because of mastering woodworking techniques have you honed your craft. You aren't required to know everything in woodworking to be a master craftsman. Doing one specific thing better than everyone else earns that title as long as you do the basic things relatively well. You sir are top notch mastering several. Kudos!

    Old was a very cool piece. But new is definitely something that I have never seen and I don’t want to stop staring at it. It’s absolute mesmerizing in the way it looks like a waterfall. The wood leg just solidifies the waterfall in nature. Stunning. Next you should just post a video of the table on a turntable just slowly and seductively showing off the beauty of this amazing piece of art. It’s hard to look away. Well done.

    'New' has to be the number one for me. It was a pretty bold experiment that showed if you have good woodworking skills you can venture out into other mediums & they will work. I know I am late viewing this project but I would have called it 'Sunstroke'. It was fantastic to watch the 'sun at work' to warm up the slab & bend it 'so gracefully'. Love the wooden leg, it gives he project another dimension & the wooden coasters added a touch of 'class'. Well done, Don from South Australia.
