What buffer did you use?
@@waterlilly62lori I haven’t watched this video in a while, but I believe it was a Ryobi buffer. I wouldn’t recommend it.
Where are you located?
@@hallebuzz Augusta, Georgia!
Amazing
Thank you very much!
Hi there I have Question! What does clear epoxy mean by ! Is it Part A & Part B ,without pigment ? Or Just Part A only Im confused Thanks
You mix 2 parts of A (epoxy) with 1 part B (hardener). Then you can throw in whatever pigments you want.
Hi there Is Liquid epoxy brand name ? Does it have part A and part B together . This is the first time I see someone not mixing Part A and B . In your first pour ( bottom layer ) you did not mix part A & B
The brand name is SuperClear. You can use code MAC5 to get 5% off! I mixed A and B for both. Not sure if I showed it in the video or not. Thanks for watching!
What size planer?
This planer is the Dewalt 735. It’s 12”
excellent video
Thank you very much!
What do you use to add your logo to the board? Beautiful work?
Thanks! I ordered a custom brand from an Etsy shop. I heat it up and stamp it on there!
In your care kit, do you supply a polishing cloth? Where do you get it??
I don’t supply a polishing cloth. I get my care kits (now) from Real Milk Paint Co! You can use code MAC10 for 10% off!
@@MacArthurWoodworks do you happen to have a link?
@@waterlilly62lori www.realmilkpaint.com/ref/macarthurwoodworks/
I thought that was a steak at first
Hahaha best comment yet
@@MacArthurWoodworks 🙂
FIRST
Congrats on being first!
Love it and it’s vertical! I just need the wood tools ❤
Thanks for commenting!
I want to do this with gemstones! Great idea.
That would be awesome. I’d love to see it! Tag me on Instagram so I can keep up with your progress.
@@MacArthurWoodworks 🙌
Hmmmm ok
Thanks for this insightful comment!
Beautiful!
Thank you!
It takes a master craftsman to show people how he does his masterpiece... because he knows that showing people, even every single step, will still not enable them to repllicate the masters work. Thank you for sharing. I will stick to programming.
This might be the single nicest UA-cam comment I’ve ever gotten!
Can you put other things inside the epoxy... Like fake butterflies? I want to make something similar for my partner but worried they would melt from the epoxy
Yes, you can cast things in the epoxy. You just have to be very careful when you put them in and continuously check for bubbles.
Can I ask what colour that is for the pigment?
I believe I showed the packets for the pigments I mixed. It’s hard for me to remember! Olive Drab, a soft gray, and forest green I believe?
They are all Baltic Day pigments though! You can use my code MAC10 for 10% off
Oh thank you I missed the part where you showed it thank you
@@travisblogstravis4367 of course!
How much trial and error did it take you to get to this point? The artistry of cutting the wood to the pigment in the epoxy. Also, where did you get your iron stamp/brand?
A LOT of trial and error! I got the iron brand from an Etsy shop.
Where do you find your wood?
It depends! I usually go to a local lumber mill.
Why do you do ypur branding before sanding? Seems like you should wait till that's all complete.
I brand after 180 and before 220. The reason I do that is because the brand leaves a yellowish burn around the wood and I think it looks bad. If I hit it with 220 after branding, it looks perfect.
@@MacArthurWoodworks thank you. That makes sense
What was the formula for figuring how much resin you need and how do you use it?
L x W x H = cubic inches. Convert cubic inches to ounces
You took several measurements of the length..how does that work?
@@waterlilly62lori I was probably taking an average of the widths because live edge wood is never straight. I may have gotten 4.5” at one part, 2.25” at another, and 6” at another. I average those together and then take that as my width.
@@MacArthurWoodworks thank you
How do you handle micro-bubbles in your epoxy?
I use the torch or heat gun to get them out.
@@MacArthurWoodworks I do the same, but still tons of microbubbles. What epoxy do you use? Is there a certain way you pour or any advice you can give?
@@waterlilly62lori I believe we’re messaging about this on Facebook!
What grit did you polish to?
I sanded this board to 240 I believe.
Have you ever used Zdspoxy epoxy resin?
I haven’t!
good job dude
Thank you!
Stunning! 🙂
Thanks!
@@MacArthurWoodworks I forgot to sub, rectified 🙂
@@antitheist9976 I really appreciate that! Every little bit helps.
What shade of blue epoxy is used? I went to your website and saw that you used it with the beautiful charcuterie boards as well.
we actually use a combination of a bunch of different blue pigments to put into the epoxy. We use Baltic Day pigments! You can try them out and get 10% off using code MAC10
Can you seal with table top epoxy since it cures faster as long as i make sure it’s still tacky before I deep pour??
Yes, that’s what I did in this video.
Oh woops didn’t realize! Thank you!
@@Eaglespence11 haha no worries! Thanks for watching
Forgot to ask as well. About how long do you let the table top seal cure to get tacky so you can than deep pour!? Sorry for so many questions
@@Eaglespence11 you could do it when it’s tacky, but I just let it harden over night and then pour the next day.
Maifique
I’m sorry?
When your cutting the ends of the board after the resin has set, why do you choose a miter saw over a table saw?
I used a miter saw then because that’s what I had. I use a table saw now
What's the formula for calculating how much epoxy you need?
Length x width x thickness gives you cubic inches and then you convert those to ounces
@@MacArthurWoodworks thank you
Question....can you stain a piece of wood to use with resin?
I’m sure you could, but I never have.
Hi Very Nice Charcuterie Board Goog Video Like It
I appreciate your comment!
Amazing
thanks!
What brand do you use ?
What brand of what do I use?
@@MacArthurWoodworks resin?
@@jithu.8808 SuperClear. You can check them out using this link - www.superepoxysystems.com/ref/michael.meeks/
What's the second liquid?
It’s the part B of the epoxy. It’s the hardener
What kind of wood di you use?
This is black walnut.
How can I find out the name Of the items u have used
I’m happy to answer any questions, but I did leave links in the description!
what did you use for the legs
I ordered the base from an Etsy shop. This is the base the customer wanted!
can u do a video just the molds @@MacArthurWoodworks
@@wayne2furniture31 here it is! ua-cam.com/video/g4Zy0fBZ1eQ/v-deo.htmlsi=EchQYc5GI5jGxuZS
Please tell me about the products you include with your boards and where you get them.😊
I use a little baggie, MacArthur stickers and business cards, and 2oz bottles of Real Milk Paint Co cutting board oil with their instructions. You can use code MAC10 for 10% off at Real Milk Paint Co.
Where do you get the instructions?
@@waterlilly62lori they are on Walrus Oil’s website. You can use code MAC10 for 10% off there. I use Real Milk Paint Co for my oil now. You can use code MAC10 for 10% off there as well! Their 2oz bottles come with instructions.
@MacArthurWoodworks why Milk point oil now? Thank you! Do you have a video on "how to" fixed base router?
@@waterlilly62lori I’ve just really enjoyed their stuff and it works better for my business. Walrus Oil is still a great product though! I don’t have a video on that - sorry.
My future creative dream
You can do it 💪🏼
I see some people seal the live edge with epoxy to guard against air bubbles. Do you find not doing this an issue?
I have not had an issue with it. On bigger projects (tables or desks) I usually seal the edges just to be safe.
What kind of wood is this?
Spalted ambrosia maple
What do you seal your edges with on the interior of the slab?
I use SuperClear’s table top epoxy. Let it sit 24 hours and then you can proceed.
this looks so amazing
Thank you!
I've seen people use tape or liquid latex to help with drips on the underside.
Yeah, that’s one method. I usually just sand them off because it’s not that difficult with the right equipment!
Can you tell me about your mold.
I made this mold from plywood and tape that doesn’t adhere to epoxy. I use silicone all around it to stop the epoxy from leaking out.
Love it brother. Happy New Year to you and the fam
Thank you! Happy new year to you!
Muy bien
Gracias!
