This table arrived well packaged and on time. ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxn94T8Mu1iMnsLCMNOI9srXSsLkI4JXKW Like another reviewer advised, I pulled everything out and made sure everything was included (everything was!). I built it alone and it took me about an hour. The color is great and for the price the lift part works well. As others have mentioned, it’s not the smoothest opening/closing, but it works. The screws do show, but I plan to order white sticker covers if that bothers us too much. Really happy with this table! UPDATE: it’s been over a year since we got this coffee table and we still love it! It gets HEAVY use as our dining table, foot rest, and school desk. Over time, the opening and closing mechanism has gotten smoother. I added a new photo with the white screw cover stickers. They blend in perfectly and make it look a little cleaner. 100% recommend!!!
Finally no horrible music (like others do) + nice explanation (like others don't). Thumbs up!

That was the craziest looking number 9 I've ever seen written
Thanks for that. I understand now. I thought it was a g! 😉
🤨🤨🤨
Wow, you need congratulating on such a wonderful project, presented in such an excellent way. What a lovely change to listen to an expert without a load of unnecessary waffle. The video was to the point, accurate and extremely well delivered - well done! I loved the little trick of multiplying mm x m x m in order to automatically convert the volume measurement of cubic metres into a fluid measurement of litres - very neat! No wonder you’ve currently sold out of the product (as of August 18). Well done! 👍
Well said Neil... I felt exactly the same. This was a great video!! And now a part of my "saved" video collection. Thanks Rich for doing such a great job!!
BEST EXPLANATION EVER!!! Great work, great speaker, etc. THANK YOU!!!
I have watched a lot of videos on this subject - building the knowledge and confidence to have a go and I have to say this is by far the best one I have seen. Thank you!
It’s not a UA-cam composite video without a British dude laying down some resin.

This video was very inspirational. Your table turned out beautiful. Thanks for taking the time to produce this video.
This channel is very professional.

Cleanest epoxi table that I have seen, and I have seen plenty... Hats off!
It came out great . I specially like that you took your time speaking clearly , you also explained all the tools you were using the measurements how you got it thank you so much
Thank you so much 🙂, glad you enjoyed it.
That is one of the best how tos I've watched. Nice and easy for me to understand and I knew nothing before this, only that it looked awsum. Thank you
I am really impressed!!
I was so happy to see you use Danish oil and then still be able to buff the epoxy to clear again. I am in the middle of a project where the epoxy is level with the surface but I want Danish oil on the wood and also for the epoxy to be clear. Well done and thanks.
I've watched numerous videos on how to build a resin table. This is the most clear and easily understandable one yet.Thank you.
R R Totally agree. My son is doing a river table for his gcse. This was enormously helpful. A big thank you

Every time i see your video,i think you are an artist
Thanks Shnnen :)
Wow. Excellent channel and presentation. This is the next son and dad project! Thank you. I really like your saw. I think that listing the materials and breaking down their use in such a simple manner makes this presentation work.
Amazing video!! Learned a lot from it. I was thinking about starting this as a hobby. But never found good videos about learning it and explanations.. till now. Great video!!
Thanks for this great instructional video. I’ve never done this before and would like to try my hand at it. This video will help
Ive seen some dozen or so River Table guides...and this is the best one. Nice job guys!
I’m only three minutes in & you’ve explained more then other videos. Thank you so much for sharing. N.K :) You now have a new subscriber too :)
Agreed
I love the table and the way you have explained this project very helpful I've watched alot of these as I'm thinking of having ago at it myself but haven't got all your awesome tools so will start small thankyou for the inspiration to do it with me luck I'll need it
ricky chapman I know right. So jealous. Best wishes. Same boat here.
Thank You so much for providing such useful Information!
I love these resin projects. I'm about to make a barn door table with resin. Thanks for sharing!
Please post results then come back and leave a comment!
Finally a video that explains the whole process, including finishing! Very straight to the point and understandable! Thank you!
You're very welcome, we're glad you liked it.
Most detailed and informative Epoxy river table making video i found on internet.
Thank you, that's very generous!
Easy and the best explaination comparing to the other videos online Thank YOU
Just beautiful
This video is soo helpful! Instantly added to my watch again list! Thanks a lot, going to follow the steps exactly as told.
This by far the most comprehensive video. Clear concise instruction, tips and information for success. I have decided to do this for my lower kitchen cabinets drawer fronts. I'm converting the doors to all drawers. Thank you so much!!!
Glad you enjoyed the video Vicki, really appreciate the kind feedback!
I love the clarity on the finished product! I hope that some good stuff you used in those miters! I just finished my first river table and I'm pretty keen on trying it again!
How did it go? Your first table? I'm considering making one.
Just such a fantastic tutorial. Now going to look at your products as I have a project in mind :) Thank you !!
Outstanding workmanship!
Great job, looks awesome. Thanks for all the advice as well
What a beautiful table and a fantastic explanation. Thank you.
That looks so good. I definitely want to give this a try! So glad that I've found this video because buying resin seems to be a minefield with other firms.
Thanks, we're really glad you like it. Yes, we are aware that there's a lot of products out there these days but... let's just say, perhaps they don't always perform as you might hope! Look forward to having you on board.
Fabulous job

Sir this is awesome
Amazing Video!
What these videos never show is how much time this work actually takes. Just did my second table. Built my own legs, 40 hours work over two weeks.
Did it turn out well?? Any tips for people who are wanting to do it for the first Tim's?
First time*
I found building a router plane was essential.
They pour epoxy and don't tell you that they wait as many as 3 days for it to dry.
They don't tell you about how you can stir it for patterns in the epoxy or when to stir.
They don't tell you how much it costs.
I am thinking of starting a UA-cam channel just to address all this stuff.
I wish you guys were in Australia!!!
Adelaide Moulding and Casting Supplies in Australia have epoxy resins available for this usage, as well as pearlex powders. I happen to work there, and can provide assistance if you'd like to inquire.
Ill bet they do too..... the uk is turned into a 3rd world shithole now
DIY composite supplies are in Brisbane
DIY deliver australia wide. diystore.biz
Thank you, mate. Great video.
Again a stunning video with some great instructions...... thanks.
If you're going to cut the whole surface off with a router at the end, probably don't need to worry about any dust settling on top at the resin curing stage. :)
This is true but there's always an outside chance that dust or dirt could sink down into the resin (below the surface that you're going to sand off) so it doesn't hurt to keep things tidy. Also, not everyone will route the surface flat, if you were leaving the whole table with a resin surface (and so you'd poured more resin over the whole surface) then you would probably be able to get away with just polishing the surface, in which case dust or dirt would be more of a problem.

nice video
considerate question and answer. thanks guys.@@easycompositestv
@@easycompositestv hey can you provide me epoxy resin in India... because in your given link they didn't deliver in india......
Where is the handbook?
Just finishing off a couple of the sections now. Sorry for the delay, should be online very soon.
it's on their website www.easycomposites.co.uk/downloads/How-to-Make-a-Resin-River-Table-GlassCast-Handbook.pdf
MySchizo Buddy big salute, good work
Very clear and crisp explanations. Good job
Superb instructional video.
Being a carpenter and made these tables.....your mitre joints are horrendous. Good video though for beginners looking to get into these kinda projects. Glass cast is also an excellent product
I cringed a little with the miter clamping, but beautiful job overall!
Haha ! I did too !
Lots of great information too !
Good Teacher
Good job my friend
Wow UA-cam is so listening to my life. I never watch these types of videos,and the past couple of days me and my mother have been sanding down a table and staining it. Well she’s talking about putting epoxy polystyrene to seal the table up and give it a shine. Well what do I know now?! I’m getting all kinds of diy tutorials on how to do it. Smh UA-cam get a life and quit stalking me. Pls😂
it‘s because your smartphone is listening to you. try it. have a mock conversation with yourself about how much you would like to have let‘s say... baby toys. that you are definitely in the market for ‘baby toys‘. soon enough you‘ll see a lot of baby toys ads and your recommended feed will be full of baby toy reviews and such. same with texts emails phone calls, phisically lurking in specializeds shops (location services) and so on. AI connects the customer and the bussiness in the most efficient way. i noticed this like 5 years ago when i was looking for a job. soon enough igot hired. at a wood workshop and that's why i'm here now. working with wood has grown on me. so in a way AI formed me withits suggestions. makes you think how deep this goes...
Bro! I thought I was the only one who was thinking this. I utterly believe you!
those mitres look horribl but the rest lookss great
I agree, what did they do wrong? What would be a better method?
lucydais x it looks like it hasen’tbeen cut straight, has a slight curve. I would make sure it’s cut straight and possibly use a thinner glue, you can see that there was glue in the middle of the mitre. There are super strong timber glues that are thin that can make seamless mitres. I use them at work for my timber joins. Lots of tape and some glue. Close the mitre up tight and tape and clamp it. After sanding should look 100% seamless.
Exactly.
Nothing wrong with the miters themselves, but adding a layer of resin can make the alignment look a bit off.
yeah even tho the whole table looks awesome, those mitres rly are an eyesore to look at as a carpenter :´D
The most professionally presented video. Thambus up!
Thanks Ibrahim :)
Thank you so much for this video.
How to spend £300 and get unsatisfing with 45° joint :(
I agree what would you recommend?
Need to better set upyour table, use some kind of joint (domino, dowels ect) and create clamps rig to make perfect 45* angle. Simple way is using hot glue and wood scraps to make platform for clamps
Thanks
Downhill 24 yeah i was so impressed until that...
Let's see yours
Love the product, But the miters are atrocious
Very interesting demo.Thanks.
This really looks great. I really want to try making one of these now, but i'm really very bad with my hands....
2:06 asscast?? You need to take a step to the side. 🤣
1 liter does not = 1 Kg unless you are using a liquid with the same specific density of water
You're blowing my mind! ;o) ...It's plenty close enough for the purposes of estimating, which is all we're doing in that calculation.
You should check on it, I think with a liquid as thick as the resin is the difference would be a fair bit
Trust me, we've got this! The difference isn't much; the relative density of GlassCast 50 is between 1.07 and 1.1 meaning that at most it's 10% different in density to water. Although generally there is correlation, viscosity (thickness) is not directly related to density. Also, GlassCast is actually pretty low viscosity, especially compared with more conventional epoxies.
that shut him up
Lol
Very good video with all the details and links to tools and materials use. Thank you very much.
Thanks Niresh, glad you enjoyed it.
Great tutorial!! I've never seen a 9 written like a "g". I was wondering how to do this though, thank you!
A really Fun project with 400€ of resine...
Well, we used 10kg of resin. Even including VAT the resin would be £166 (which would be 188€ ).
Which is $302 Canadian!!! Wow!
Cool products but way too expensive for me!!
Meddy Saber there's lots of places. Maybe not that same brand but the same process. Home Depot or any hardwood or woodworking store will have it
Arizona Heatwave and approx 12500 philippine peso. Damn thats expensive
or 13 camels! damm thats expesive
the giant saw that he use to cut the dead tree carcass in half also cost like 1000 camels
What happened to the usual guy?
Is he in prison?
He's currently working on a big movie down at Pinewood. Or maybe not. Paul will be back, we're just giving Rich his time in the limelight!
hahah lol
I don't care at all! I fell in love with this guy's eyes!!!! hahahahah
Thanks a lot...u did a great job
Congratulations, great work.
4:29 ass cast
Thanks for a great tutorial!
Truly a beautiful project. Gives me the courage to try it out for myself!
Definitely let us know how you get on :)
I like this project.
Very nice and beautiful work love it
Thank you :-)
Nicely done and very well presented. I don't know if anyone else had the same thought when the miters were being cut - Pen blanks! 🙂
Preciosa!
👍👏👏👏👏👏👏
Y muy bien explicado. Gracias!
That looks awesome!!👍
Stunning work and great video
Amazing project and finishing.
Thank you. It was very useful information !!
Very well done and explained.
Great job!! love the table!
So clean, man.
amazing job !!!
Great presentation and demonstration. Qua-li-teeee! Cheers Bro!
Very beautiful
Thank you. Yes, we were really pleased with the end-result which has a nice balance between the resin and the wood. I must confess though that I actually really liked it before we did the final polish too, when the resin (and the wood) had a satin appearance.
wow very nice work
Great video. I may just give it a go.
Its really nice and beautiful.
