I love making these pieces and I am so thankful for the opportunity to entertain you guys doing it! :)
The black and copper epoxy looks alive in the table! Gorgeous!!
thank you!! :)
I have been doing HV Pyrography for years.
I can not say say strongly enough to stop using a microwave transformer!
ONLY ONE MISTAKE and you are dead, PERIOD!
There is a second reason why you should change your power source. It called control.
For artistic sake the use of a neon transformer will give you MUCH more control over the burn and even the pattern.
If you should make a mistake with a neon transformer it will get your attention BUT it wont kill you.
Let me know if you would like to learn more

Their is 9500 to 11500 volts in a neon sign transformer it just doesn't burn as hot so fast as a microwave transformer does. It burns better detail but at the same time not as deep in most cases. I've got several of both transformers. I haven't checked the amps on the neon sign transformer but if I had to quess I would lean to think that it is just as high or higher. Anyway point I'm trying to add is purchase a Veriac voltage regulator run your power through the regulator then out to the transformer of choice turn the power on and turn the knob on the regulator up increasing the volts until you get the desired burn your going for the more you increase it the hotter it gets. I'm sure you get the picture. Both are very dangerous in each of their own ways. Hahahaha it's just insane to me that today we have to hold everyone's hand in every little single way to protect them to protect ourselves from getting in trouble or whatever bc they didn't protect themselves and got hurt it's the dumbest thing ever. People see it is burning it is obviously hot seeing that it is on fire. Duh. It is plugged into the wall it's got arcs of power coming off the ends of the leeds that are touching the wood. Don't touch you idiot!!!! But go ahead and touch it at your own risk. Hahahahahaha it's absolutely dumb that we in today's world have to tell grown men and women to protect yourself Don't touch that it can hurt you badly or kill you. When the most dangerous thing we do everyday is get behind the wheel of a car and boy their are some straight crazies on the road behind the wheel of a car. Why don't they ban these drag racing or doing burnouts or donuts in intersections on public streets for. Car in the middle of intersection doing donuts ok people don't get close watch out you can get hurt if you get too close or if the dumbass behind the wheel slips up and loses control or if you prefer to stand as close to the action as you wish be my guest go right ahead get right up in there on the action be sure to hang your head down low and out to get the best shot of the action.

@@joshsinko76 that is definitely one wall of text. take it easy on the opioids, pal.
you are the only person i have seen do this in a safe and responsible way.
Thank you! I’m tryin 😂
Wow! It looks incredible. I love watching Blacktail Studio and agree, Cam makes some beautiful tables. The fractal burning is amazing and I`m glad you didn`t use the all to commonly used blue epoxy. One of a kind creation and I`m looking forward to the next one.
Thank you very much!:)
🎉 super amazing! You were so right about how well the black and the gold complemented the wood! The legs you chose finished it perfectly! I would buy this piece!
thank you!!
I have a passion for woodworking since my early years. Just getting into epoxy resin techniques recently. I came across this video searching for it and this blew out my mind. Your approach to build this coffee table is totally in an artist level and perfection. Beautifully done!. I would love to learn the wood burning technique. 🔥 Thank you for sharing your knowledge and the passion you put into it.
Thank you so much!!
That's pretty cool glad to see how you stressed how dangerous that burning is
Absolutely amazing!! For myself, I would have preferred to leave the fractals without the gold epoxy but the black/copper epoxy combo was gorgeous,
I have actually thought about how it might have looked better with black epoxy in the burns instead of copper. Maybe I’ll do that another time ;)
@@bruceburnswoodshop1620 that's the thing you wouldn't have to put black pigment or anything in the epoxy just mix clear the burn is already black. If you needed darken up some spots small artist brush and touch up the areas that needed to be then just pour a clear epoxy coat over the entire piece. Or use a paint pen instead of tiny brush. I don't know where I found these at but I found some syringe type paint brushes. You fill them up and they have a plunger just like a syringe but instead of just pushing down to release the paint you would twist these to release the paint. And they held the paint well actually. Not having to constantly twist them or anything to keep paint in the brush end. When I go out to the shop either later today or tomorrow I will see if I can find one and send you a picture. Believe it or not it just crossed my mind but I think I found them at either Walmart in the arts and crafts area or at a like dollar general. Family dollar type of store to be honest with you as far fetched as that seems. I do know they weren't expensive they almost look like one of these products you see and you think those would never work and you pick them up and question this $2.00 major purchase the entire rest of your time in the store. Hahahaha should I put these back, keep them ugh you know what I'm saying then you get home and may not even use them and weeks go by and you find them and then you repeat the whole questioning yourself thing again only for you to open them up and use them and they are the best thing since sliced bread lol. Only to return to the store to buy up the $20 dollars worth of quantity the store had only for them to be all gone. Hahahaha story of my life I will try and pm you a picture of one later. Have a great rest to your weekend my friend.
I am impressed! Also very inspired! Bruce. You are a true innovator. Thank you for sharing. 🙃
Thank you!! 😁
You can definitely tell you’ve done that whole process enough to know how to do it efficiently. That came out great, especially the color combination choice. I’ve been wanting to do this kind of stuff, you’ve got it down to a science. Earned a sub
Thank you so much!! Ya I’ve made a bunch of these pieces and I got some more unique pieces I want to try and make soon! 🤘
You have the best setup I've seen for this type of thing.
Thank you! It’s all about safety. I just tried to make mine as safe as I possibly could.
The mixture on the large epoxy section is gorgeous, well done
Thank you! Cheers!😁
we used a neon light tranformer. higher voltage. i finally hooked up and insulated couple screw drivers. then you could control touch where you was burning. so cool cause you could right someones name while burning.
Anyone following such guidelines might die from it. The shock from a neon sign transformer can also be lethal. The high voltage allows a large current to flow, even with light contact against dry skin or through some arc. The transformer is current-limited, but typically to a level well above the threshold for ventricular fibrillation. The big issue is when you have much higher voltage you also allow arcs to form on much bigger distances. A screwdriver that has microscopic cracks in the plastic handle could easily be lethal, for example, if the transformer outputs 15kV and the distance through a crack is one centimeter. Screwdrivers are not designed for isolating such voltage at all and as plastic ages over time it naturally can get microscopic cracks. Your screwdrivers might be safe, but random people doing random choices might not see the next day.
That table is stunningly beautiful. I also appreciate the warnings you gave about the fractal burning and all the precautions you take.
Thank you!! 😁 I try to make sure people get the massage it is very dangerous!!
Walking on the sidewalk of a busy street is more dangerous.
Que ingenioso, hermoso obra!!!!💖💖💖💖👏👏👏👏
That mix medium table design is very innovative-wow factor a 10.
Thank you very much!!
Wonderful job.. beautiful masterpiece.
Thank you!! 🤘
That table is sick!!! Nice Craftsmanship, and attention to detail.
Thank you so much!!
Absolutely beautiful!
Thank You!!!!
That turned out beautiful! Nice work! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you!!
Cool 😎
It's always nice to see how good people enjoy using their good talents to make the world a better place to live! Wishing you a wonderful fulfilling life!
Thank you so much!!
If you use a matte clear glaze coating on your work or even a gloss glaze spray on coat before doing your fill of the burn pattern you don't have to do all the scraping and sanding potentially losing some of the pattern left from the burn process I've been doing these for sometime as well and have spent hours and days sanding. Bc usually your going to apply a finish of either a gloss finish or matte finish over the entire piece when finished. It saves a ton of time my friend try it and let me know what you think. Great piece by the way looks great.
So I used to coat the whole piece in shellac before pouring but I ran into problems when sanding the excess epoxy off because it would take some of the shellac of and come out uneven. What finish do you use before pouring in the burns?
@@bruceburnswoodshop1620 yes I would always sand my piece to the finish I wanted the smoothness that is then burn it that way i wouldn't lose any of the finer details in the burn. Then if I was going with a gloss finish or a flat matte finish i would spray the whole piece let it dry and then possibly another light spray to coat the areas that may have soaked up the glaze coat leaving some or the grain lightly still exposed. Well I skipped a step depending on how I felt or what the detail of the burn was I would run a small pick like dental pick through the smaller more detailed sections of the burn and wire brush some of the carbon out of the entire burn. Then wash it off.allow to dry then spray the glaze. Now I'm back on track. After the glaze dries make sure you have a real good glaze coat on it even that is. That glaze I'd gonna fill in any small undulations on the piece. Then pour your epoxy into your burn still trying to minimize as much overflow running all over but it happens I think you know what im talking about. Just not having it in a complete mess. Anyway allow that coat after using like a plastic bondo type putty knife or trowel allow it to set up just a little so it's settled and not so runny. Use a clean putty knife metal or plastic being careful not to gouge grooves in the piece run it over the flat and all of the epoxy will pretty much be gone. Yes their will be a fine coating on the piece of epoxy that didn't come off sometimes I've even used some old Rags and gone around it if I felt like it was gonna leave a bubble or raised spot on the piece. But if you ever have noticed how when the say blue colored epoxy you mixed up and poured out when it is stretched out thin it almost doesn't have a tinted color to it anymore bc the background is overpowering it leaving it clear again. Then I would pour a clear coat of epoxy as a glaze coat to fill in any dips and imperfections and stuff that coat will fill in any fine scratches and things making it a mirror finish be sure to still check for air bubbles and remove them with torch. It will eliminated all that finish sanding it may add several hours of more dry time for the piece because of the extra pour glaze coat at the end of the project but that leaves time to work on something else productive instead of standing in the same place wearing a low spot in floor from standing there sanding for 5 hours or whatever it takes you can work on the next project or grab a beer or beverage of choice and sit down for a breather I can't hardly sit down longer than 10-15 mins before I notice something over here or over there that needs straightening up or fixed or just whatever. It just utilizes the time you waiting on it to dry instead of having to waste all that energy just sanding bc 80 percent of the time you spend on a finished piece is spent on sanding buffing polishing or whatever and it just gets monotonous I think. The key is to finish sand your piece to the finish you prefer and then burn. That is the main thing. Basically doing the project in reverse at first. But no glaze before doing your burn would probably just burn and stink up the shop or catch fire. Keep doing what you do good looking work you are doing my friend take care and reach out whenever in need I do the same. That's why these pages are started anyway is to be able to network learn and progress your skills or trade to build your knowledge. Hope ot works out for you I've not had a issue with this process but everyone is different I suppose but this is actually the first time I've shared this ever I hope it helps
Feels very blacktail studio inspired with your own added on there. Nice job my friend
Blacktail is definitely a big inspiration, Cam is an absolute legend! thank you!! 🙏
What about a collaboration sure cam would love that.
That is absolutely beautiful!! Love the look of the wood, colors and how it all blends in!! Well done
Thank you!! I was pleasantly surprised with how well the colors matched the walnut! 😁
Love it. Like nothing I've seen before.
Congratulations on a very attractive work of art.
Thank you!! Just trying to do something different!
This table is just WOW!!! ❤😍😍😍
This table is absolutely gorgeous. First time watching. I will be back🎉
Stunning table the colour is beautiful. Love your work!!
Absolutely sets you apart! Great work!
Thank you!! 😁
Beautiful table - colors are gorgeous.
Thank you!! I was pretty happy with how well they flowed with the black walnut!
Every bit as beautiful as Blacktail! You should be proud. You are a true artist.
Thank you very much!! But I wouldn’t say that, he’s the og of epoxy tables!
That's a bit far!
Fantastic and also for detailing.
Thanks bro...
Jazak-Allah
Thank you!!
Wow, that table is fantastic.
Classy piece of furniture that will complement any room
Thank you !! 😁
A beautiful thing with the Lichtenberg method. I am going to add this to my projects. Yours came out fabulously. Greetings from Poland :)
Thank you!! Maybe sure you watch my safety video before trying fractal wood burning! Video link is in my description. There’s a ton of important info to keep you safe!!!
That is beautiful work bud, and I thoroughly enjoyed watching you build it , keep up the great work 😉👍
Thank you very much! I appreciate the feedback! 😁
Great idea.. very nice table well done
Thank you!! 🙏🙏
Awesome piece!! In fractal burning can you paint a channel of the baking soda water solution instead of saturating an entire piece? My thoughts were to try and direct a single burn channel from corner to corner of a piece. Thanks
Ya you can definitely do that! I like to soak the entire piece because the baking soda solution will actually change the appearance of the wood and it would look uneven if the entire piece does not get saturated! And thank you btw!
Awesome. Thank you for the reply.
Good Gawd that is a beautiful table!
That you so much!! 🤘
Absolutely gorgeous piece of work here. Very artistic
That is some serious dangerous sh!t. Woodburning is insanely deathly.
Thank you for warning the viewers.
Now that is a beautiful table, so much so, I want to build 2. One for me and one for my brother. Gorgeous man, absolutely beautiful!!!!!!
Thank you!!
Beautiful! Fractal Wood Burning is so interesting and beautiful! I came from another video of yours that popped up in my feed! Very beautiful!
Hell yeah, nice job. Looks amazing. I've been getting into all of this and I now know, you indeed CAN fractal burn after pouring epoxy. I wasn't sure if the epoxy would melt/burn in weird ways. good to know that it doesn't. Woohoo!
Great job. Table looks fantastic. I have a piece of redwood I’ve been saving for a coffee table. I think that would look great done to it.
Absolutely redwood is beautiful thank you!
Amazing skill 👍
Thank you!!:)
What a beautiful piece of furniture / functional art! ❤😮🎉
Thank you!! 😁
Can’t believe it hasn’t sold yet, and only £1000, I was expecting it to be x4 that amount. Good luck. You have skill.
Wow amazing, my wife and I are thinking about getting in to doing this, any tips lol I also watch the other dude as well… lol keep it up… great job… another sub here..💪🏽💪🏽
Thank you for watching!! I have a video on fractal wood burning safety I recommend you watch that first! Link is in the description of this video. But I would highly recommend you learn just how dangerous fractal wood burning is before getting into it! But I should be coming out with a tips and tricks video soon so just stay tuned and I’ll give away some of my secrets!
No problem I love stuff like this, keep them videos coming lol will do once I’m of work will check it out, and thank you for the effort u make on your videos and doing an awesome job… good day to u and everyone ✌🏽✌🏽
You have alot of talet its very beautiful. If i could afford it id buy several. Keep enjoying your masterpiece. Amazing!
Thank you so much! 😁
It could be a fantastic feeling to produce such a beautiful piece of art. :) Great! That final coating makes it so rich and soft. Amazing.
Thank you!!😁
Awesome work dude👍👍
You have a new subscriber.
Thank you so much I really appreciate that!! 🤘
Best project that ive seen from you so far!!!
Wauw like it very much. God blest you with a wonderfull gift to make so.
Thanks so much!! 😁
I was really keen on trying this, but now I'm not so sure. Mad respect to you for making it clear how dangerous this is. I HONESTLY appreciate that. Think I'll stick with my soldering iron for burning wood a bit longer 🤣
An awesome job! And well explained, particularly the safety aspect!
Thank you!! 🙏
Bro this is WICKED COOL, very nicely done, I’ve just subscribed & I look forward to watching more of your videos
Thank you !!!🙏🙏
Wow. This is so freaking amazing. I wish I could do something like this. Chapeau sir.
Thank you!! 😁
That table is awesome brother
Thank you very much!!
Absolutely beautiful. I just stumbled onto this video. You do amazing work
The foot switch is a great idea 💡
Anything to keep you away from the electricity while it’s burning is a good idea! Thanks! 👍
3:35 dont spray when it is still on. dont rely only the dead mN switch. please use two step shut off
Gorgeous table!!
First off, Beautiful job! I was surprised that you only sanded down to 240 grit before pouring the finish. I thought Rubio required like, 600 to really show off the woodgrain. Yours came out excellent though.
(That was cool, to give a shoutout to Cam. I'm a fan, also. I wonder how many woodworkers he has inspired.)
Technically Rubio only says to sand to 180. But ya thank you! Cam is a huge inspiration!! He makes it look so easy 😂
That is straight fire amazing job breath taking
I appreciate that!
BruceBurns, is that a pun on the process or your real name? Anyway - great choice to work with complimentary colors instead of the neon blue/green or jet black we so often see in this genre of work. Thought the legs were a bit heavy in section for this table top? but the top design is just great. Thanks for posting your work.
My first name is Trevor, last name Bruce! So I guess it kind is a pun 🤷♂️ and thank you!! I have used these colors with black walnut a few times now and I always love the way it turns out! And thanks for your input on the legs, I always welcome criticism. To be honest, the legs are often an afterthought in my table making process and that’s something I should think about more; taking the time to find legs that complement the top. Thanks again for your input and for watching!! :)
Beyond description, in a league of your own
Thank you so much I really appreciate that!:) just trying to do something different!
top shelf, excellent work !
Thank you!!
That is so beautiful
Thank you so much!! 😁
Absolutely beautiful
That is beautiful!!!
Such a beautiful job.
Thank you very much!!
Looks good.
Looks great but I think you should of made the fractal burning with black epoxy
Thank you for your feedback! I honestly thought the same thing lol. Maybe next time, I think black in the burns would look great
That is stunning, wish I had the cash to commission one.
Thank you!! 🤜🤛
I have did Lichtenberg fractal wood burning since 2015 ,
That's 8 years of doing it ,
I am the on/off switch as well and never touch anything unless it is unplugged .
5000 volts equals instant Death !
I have made a fractal wood burner with dual microwave transformer, and it works perfectly and safely. I will also teach my children to use it.
Stunning.
Thank you very much!! 🙏
Awesome design and work!
Thank you very much!
What is awesome? A pice of wood and epoxy. Can't build real Table?
.
@@thomasschafer7268 taste is subjective! If you dont like it then dont watch 😋
Beautiful result! I wonder why the epoxy won't get extremely hot in this amounts? I filled a small container with epoxy some time ago and it started to smoke and oberflow after some time due to the chemical reaction
Was it table top epoxy or deep pour epoxy? Table top epoxy is only meant to be poured up to 1/4 inch thick or so at most. Deep pour epoxy can be poured much thicker without it over heating. Don’t ask me how I know 😂
@@bruceburnswoodshop1620 Ah, that explains why the epoxy that you used looks viscous like water. I wasn't aware that different sorts of epoxy exist (I guess the one you use for your tables uses less hardener so it takes longer but doesn't heat up that much).
Beautiful! ;)
Thank you!!
Omg. Wonderfull. Exellent job thx the upload.....
Thank you very much!! 😁
Your work is so stinkin' amazing! 🥰👍
Thank you!! 😁
Very nice👌👍
Thank you!! 🙏
Nice work. I learnt a lil. Thanks
Incredible what a beautiful table. I would love one like that, better yet if I would build it
wetting both sides will prevent warping as equal pressures on both sides neutralize each other.
Looks nice. Probably would look even better with no burn in features. I mean bottom part looked better than actual top. Also does it kill wood integrity when you stress it out with such intensive 🔥? Wonder how long it will last before it will fall apart. Not to mention epoxy might also lose strength when hrat coming close to it.
The epoxy bond is stronger than the wood itself. Not sure what hrat is but if it’s some kind of table destroying monster it could definitely do some damage. 🤷♂️
@@bruceburnswoodshop1620 ok cool
@@bruceburnswoodshop1620 what about epoxy and food save materials? Seen many chopping boards done with epoxy. Is it food save? 🤔
@@milkod2001 epoxy when fully cured is food safe. But you can’t cut over epoxy. So you can make a serving tray or charcuterie with epoxy but not a cutting board.
So many people have died trying this. I wouldn't ever risk it.
Smart!
Do you have an example of someone dying doing this?
@@timpeters3228 Google , god damn man. Its high voltage electricity. WTF do you think is going to happen.
@@jeremycaudill6916 Google is a source? I can google any answer I desire.
@@timpeters3228 If you are too god damn stupid to know that high voltage electricity can kill you, I don't know what to tell you. But I will throw you a bone and tell you to google Fractal wood burning deaths. You also shouldn't ask random people on the internet for a link to a source as I could have just hosted my own site with a trojan set to execute when you click the link. Just another thing to not be stupid about.
Good job, looks dope!!
Thank you!!
Warning - he's 100% correct about the risks and doing this yourself at home. My degree is in electronics, and I can tell you that 2,000 volts from a transformer can kill you before you even fall to the ground. This is one of the easiest ways to get yourself killed trying to do something on UA-cam. Nice work by the way. How much did you get for this piece?
Meraviglioso... Bravo
The table is gorgeous, lets keep you alive
Thank you!!
That’s really cool!
Thank you my man!! 🤘
BEAUTIFUL
I love this table
Where did you get the legs? Do you have a video showing details of your circuitry? Wire type (stranded vs solid), gauge, fuse, kill switch, PVC, gloves, etc. I’m all about safety, first. Thank you for the product specifics and other info sources. I am looking forward to years of an artistic hobby.
Fabulous 👍👍👍
Thank you!!!:)
Amazing
