    Sorry, I didn't show this lamp with the lights off 😑. I'm not sure how I forgot to include it even though I filmed it. I will share it on social media on my social channels. Here is a link to see the lamp in the dark bit.ly/3jYuSQM

      Really cool lamp project, I might make one for myself. You should try top use mold release (or cooking spray if your feeling lazy) before the epoxy, the mold comes off much easier.

    That is the best use of resin I have seen yet. The ubiquitous "river tables" leave me a little cold. Too contrived and artificially trendy, but this lamp knocks it out of the park 👍

    Elegant design and I like the proportions.
    Well done, as usual!
    I could see having a few of these with different colors set out in a backyard/around a deck as accent lights.
    Thanks for sharing this with us!

  • @AnEvolvingApe
    @AnEvolvingApe 2 роки тому +4

    Recommendation: the guy at Blacktail always seals the wood with a coat of epoxy first before the big pour to reduce bubbles that escape the wood.

    Brilliant! Thanks for sharing. Don't worry about mistakes, that's how we learn.. When I first started with resin, I was making a small lake, about 6x3 in with Styrofoam. I didn't seal the styrofoam and yeah, it melted and an ungodly mess ensued...Hahaha... Not too funny at that moment though... Thanks again!

    Clap! Clap! Clap! I like it, I can think of someone on UA-cam here that would have started with a $200 block of wood with rot then spent hours cleaning out the rot to make sure the epoxy stuck. So you saved time, money and I can't see a difference in looks.

    That's a cool piece. I have a bunch of petrified wood that I've soaked in vinegar to eliminate bubbles. I ordered a bunch of switches, power inputs, and LED bulbs. I was thinking about the tiny LED strands. Maybe another time. I always use Danish Oil and I like to take my auto buffer and use Meguiar's headlight polish on the epoxy. I also like using different glow powders. Good stuff, bro!

    As you are dealing with mains electric I would advise using either heatshrink or liquid rubber wire cover to prevent the wires from making contact in future incase of the solder coming loose over time. Its always good practice to get into the habit of covering exposed wire connections
