Dan, quick tip for mold releasing, use wax of some sort, I use turtle wax for all my resin fills/moldings, an alternative is Teflon spray, but make sure it’s well ventilated
A company called stoner makes mold release. Get their silicone mold release when using epoxy and it creates a nice shine and allows it to separate from your frame easily. It takes a couple tries to get the spray right but its amazing when you do.
I just spent 22 minutes watching Dan make a lazy susan.... and, I want.... more??? Best channel on youtube for sure. Great edits, awesome commentary, shows mistakes. Inspiring!
Dan I found you many years ago because of the motorcycles. I do enjoy all of your content, glad to see it all in one place. I think you should keep the logo as is, it’s cool and many of us know that to be your logo. It doesn’t mean you cannot or should not expand and grow the DIWD channel
Personally, while I love the color combo and the curing effect of the black powders, I would have arranged most of the wood in a semi-crescent shape to mimic the wood drifting onto a shore of black sand.
Dude you’re such a freaking inspiration. If you decide you want to try something you just go and do it with almost if not any fear of failure. Keep up the awesome content!
one of the best things to minimize bubbles in the epoxy without having a pressure chamber is to have a secondary container to put in the epoxy after youve mixed it, it also ensures that the two parts are mixed evenly. It sounds ridiculous and redundant, but it really does work.
Hey Dan, a tip they taught me at work, is to apply a thin thin (with a microfiber cloth) layer of paste wax onto the entire mold surface, it makes it pop right off every time
I like the fact that no matter what Dan does, it is always either very entertaining or relaxing and informative (even though they're not tutorials). It probably came with time, even though the content changed big time. Still, watching every video you upload. Aight, I'm 'bout to head out. Stay awesome, Dan. We know you will :)
I think you accomplished a great job. As you said it isn't perfect but it don't need to be, as long as its your happy about it. Looking forward to see more epoxy projects 👍
I just want to say that your video was dope as hell. Made the mistake of watching this with my wife, now she's urging me to make some of her drift wood projects. Hahaha I thoroughly enjoyed this video and that you showed your mistakes and fixes of them. Keep up the great work and stay sage and keep being awesome! 🤘🏾🤙🏾 from Hawaii.
I knew a girl named LAZY SUSAN once, all she did was lay there. Cool looking project, always love to see what can be done with epoxy, have done a few tables myself and yes it can get expensive.
Should really be using a glass surface for pouring as the only thing that holds the final product is the facile from lack of air but you get a near perfect finish if you add wax to the glass
Hey Dan, been a fan of the channel for a couple years now since the F4i sharpie bike, this video has sparked an interest in how to do expoxy stuff like this. Could you make a video of how to do something like this!? Id love to learn how
Not sure if it’s the same for Epoxy bc I haven’t used it, but when I’ve poured silicon rubber for moulds and that, if you pour from a corner and up high it reduces ur air bubbles bc they stretch out before the mix hits the panel and going from one corner stops more air getting trapped. Idk If it would be the same for epoxy and don’t wanna tell you how you should go about it. Just wonder if it might help 👌🤙
When proping it up pick something to set it on that’s just smaller than the diameter so it’s fully supported. Other than that it looks like e genuine $300 piece.
Dan you doing epoxy stuff is like watching HGTV... i wonder why i watch it, i cant stop watching it and it makes me want to start more projects than i have time to do 😂😂 thing looks awesome man, congrats on the shop too. Excited to see what this year brings you!
Hey Man U should put why u put that many squirts in and why and maybe put a list of ingredients for it in the description for us to try this at home one day !
West Systems brings back a lot of memories of working with carbon fiber for Formula SAE cars. It was a lot of fun but man even with good ventilation you can get loopy if you work with that stuff for hours on end. Yeah its a premium price but I think its worth it for the quality and control they provide.
That looks great man, thanks for another video. If you find yourself looking for something to watch DEVS on Hulu is a morty mind blower, for sure I think you'd dig it
@Dan: Next time, release the side boards with wax or vaseline if you don't have a can of release. Really rub it on the wood and then wipe off any excess before putting the box together. (I work with liquid polyurethanes, silicones and plastic products.)
@@jamesphelps9573 you reckon Dan just drove the Ram through the frontage at West Systems? Stole their entire stock and yeeted back to Georgia to make dank epoxy builds while in quarantine :D
My Shop teacher: "Don't remove your part until the bandsaw stops spinning"
Dan: "Picks up Whole bandsaw while still spinning"
my shop teacher just talked about death most of the time, not related to shop class
DO as I say not as I do !! haha
I love how you tell how things went well, what didn't go well, and if it's different what the 'right' way to do something is.
I’m not gonna lie. I DID NOT know what a lazy Susan was until the end of the video
I thought it was a females chair
I could feel the anger radiating from my phone when you were trying to separate the epoxy.
I really do prefer your decision, that you put everything on this channel only. Keep up the good work, i really enjoy your content, be safe!

for some reason after i smoke a bunch of pot i love these acrylic videos, keep it up!
Bro same
I had the first commuter speaker and I loved it! Had to cop this one as well, and to support my man Dan! Thanks brotha! Keep killing it!
nobody:
Dan: EPOXY
All I wanted was to tell Dan about the little piece of wood that fell over in the epoxy at 8:20 lol
Now THAT is a catch. Even with the timestamp I had to rewind multiple times to finally see it.
Dudes whole house gonna be epoxies at some point 😂
This is a really cool project great result!

For your frame you make as your form, before you start to pour coat the sides with coconut oil it's a clear cooking oil used for non stick pans
Dude it looks great! Imperfections is what homemade-handmade is all about. It's great work.
"Do it with Dan" I like it. 5 years later and your name makes sense! *This is just a joke*
destroySTREETS honestly a pretty funny one too🤣
@@makinwaves8147 I don't want dan to be mad at me hes my hero!
destroySTREETS yea I don’t think he would, he’d probably think it’s funny
@@makinwaves8147 he told me he doesn't wanna be my hero any more :(

If i did it again, I would definitely change the pattern.

Title: Epoxy lazy susan
Me: .... wtf is a lazy susan?
Me too lol
Me too lmao.😂😂😂
A spinny thing you put shit on
This whole time I thought it was the spinning thing in a corner cabinet😂😂
@@carsonbaker8531 that is another kind of lazy Susan.
I love these woodworking epoxy and craft videos so much, Keep it up
Wow that turned out amazing, great job, I’m moving next month and will finally have a garage for projects, cheers man

Dan look into a hdo plywood i build molds that we pour epoxy into everyday then look for a wax mold release.
I knew a girl named LAZY SUSAN once, all she did was lay there. Cool looking project, always love to see what can be done with epoxy, have done a few tables myself and yes it can get expensive.
I love the cloud look in the black
Should really be using a glass surface for pouring as the only thing that holds the final product is the facile from lack of air but you get a near perfect finish if you add wax to the glass
You should try using a vacuum chamber it will help with bubbles and other imperfections
I absolutely love these videos Dan! Glad all the content will be here from now on! Keep on keepin' on brother!

Look in to a product call scuff stuff for wet sanding. Maybe it will work better.
It looks fantastic man! Excited to see all the content coming our way
Bro love where you’re going with the channel! Adapt and overcome!!! 🤙🏻
I love this dude man. Funny, informative and honest. With a touch of immaturity😂
Never knew it was called a lazy susan, that was satisfying as hell to watch, very nice Dan, it looks awesome man.

I never knew this content existed. Definitely sticking around, love it
Check out his pc desk he made with spent shell casings
I like how the dark epoxy looks like burnt/charred wood
CODE: DKSOUND "what the DK stand for Donkey Kong
Ever thought about an epoxy cutting board? I wonder it it would dulll knives in
Dan you doing epoxy stuff is like watching HGTV... i wonder why i watch it, i cant stop watching it and it makes me want to start more projects than i have time to do 😂😂 thing looks awesome man, congrats on the shop too. Excited to see what this year brings you!
Forbidden pizza. That looks awesome! I enjoy wood working content by the way 👍🏻
Know when to stop. Nothing is perfect. If you keep chasing making it perfect, it ends up more fu*** up. Learnt from my own experience.
Hey Man U should put why u put that many squirts in and why and maybe put a list of ingredients for it in the description for us to try this at home one day !
Soo... I put off watching this video thinking I wouldn't enjoy it very much. But hey, I really enjoyed this. Nice work dude!!
Nice video, love the final product. Fun project as well.
Holy shit, two Danny vids in a row?? I’m in love

Hey Dan I haven't seen Jaxon in a video for a really long time. How is he? Is he doing okay?
He was sneaking around in the background in this video. You can see him. He's good :)
This whole project is just so sick
What kind of belt sander is that, I like it?
15:19 is that Ramirez ?
Can you re upload the center console one it don’t work
@11:31 Dan did you get a new dog other than Jackson?
Great job 👏. You are growing as a person and also as a channel. I like your content.
I may be an essential worker, but your videos are essential to me 🙌
Dan what song is playing at 5:56
Cool project Dan.
You wiping the epoxy at 19:55 had me laughing out loud and idk why 😂😂😂
When is the DIWD and Peter Brown crossover happening?
Taylor FACTS I WOULD LIVE THAT
I love some of his wood turning videos!
@Dan: Next time, release the side boards with wax or vaseline if you don't have a can of release. Really rub it on the wood and then wipe off any excess before putting the box together. (I work with liquid polyurethanes, silicones and plastic products.)
thats really nice, you are very talented daniel
because of the doom music you single handedly sold me on a kove speaker.
Looks amazing Dan, good job!
Soooo... how much epoxy did you use on that project? What is it measured in $?
Cool project Dan!
I'm big into woodwork and want to get into epoxy based stuff, yours look awesome. How much epoxy was used for the whole project roughly?
Tris all of it lol 😂😂
@@jamesphelps9573 you reckon Dan just drove the Ram through the frontage at West Systems? Stole their entire stock and yeeted back to Georgia to make dank epoxy builds while in quarantine :D
Tris I wouldn’t put it past ole dickhead. Lol
Hey Danny boy
You should think about making a vacuum chamber to deal with the bubbles
what happened to the dually
That looks badass!! Nicely done!
That came out so fire!!🔥🔥🔥🔥
In the realm of military, and mechanics: If it's stupid, but it works. It ain't stupid.
that's a sponsor with a good discount, and i needed a little speaker!
Job very well done Dan looks the nuts fella
What if you used metal flakes/shavings in the epoxy
Artistry with Dan
Thing looks insane
I love this. Def keep it all here. I love the variety of videos
I've started working with resin!
That looks badass! Awesome work...
Hey dan. Just a quick tip. Epoxy doesnt stick to garbage bags. Love u
