Here are a few of the the things I learned in doing the table in post#123 above.
1. Use plenty of seal coats - at least 3 (and seal any openings on bottom that could allow bubbles on top - modeling clay can be used on bottom and removed after project completion)
2. Temperature and humidity are very important - higher temperature means faster curing which can trap air bubbles before they reach the surface. High humidity can cloud the epoxy. Ideal temp - 70 and <60% humidity.
3. Prepare more mixture than you think you need.
4. Don't be afraid to fix it if it doesn't come out right. Just sand the entire surface enough to rough the surface for the next layer to adhere. (The sanded surface won't look good but will turn out fine after the next pour.)
After 26 yrs, I have.I haven’t done any woodworking in a long time. Just don’t have the time.
I was ALMOST tempted to just retire from it.
