As a tradesmen who uses tools I really appreciate what you did to this. Absolutely wonderful. As a tip though if you reset the bubbles again on a level,sit it on another level that is held in a level position as a confirmation reference as you are bedding them in the plaster to ensure they are parallel to the edge of the levels surface. I only mention because you did check the trueness against another level at the end. As a piece heritage being preserved for non practical use it obviously doesn't matter but given the amazing level of detail to your work I know it would have annoyed you had it been out of true. I thank you for this vid.

Hi, great work, but on the vac/pressure chamber debate. I’ve seen other YT vids where a pressure chamber is used and the mixed epoxy is put into he Vacuum. Chamber after mix, but before pouring to extract the bubbles. And yes it does “boil” - but this was allowed for in the size of the mixing chamber. Then it was carefully poured into he mould. (I think the object was a large dining room table. So Vac is a bit more practical than getting a pressure chamber. Anyway the object would have to remain in the Pressure chamber for the curing or when the pressure was released the bubbles would just go back to normal size)?
@beezul 4 жыл бұрын
@@dc9999ify Yes, you are correct about the pressure chamber squeezing the bubbles smaller until the pressure is released, then they just blow back up where they were. Vacuum chamber will expand the bubbles, the increased buoyancy will bring them to the surface and pop. My father and I have worked with liquid acrylics and epoxies for decades, we found vacuum works the best. A simple propane torch waved across the surface of liquid epoxy will also clear off any bubbles.

I think this is beautiful, I love pieces that incorporate metal and wood AND resin! I think I enjoy watching wood being sandblasted even more than metal for some reason 🤔

My son worked at a shop that restored classic and antique cars and trucks. He was the blast man. In two weeks, in GA summer heat, he had enough sandblasting to do a life time. He runs his own shop now and has hired help for sandblasting. There is a thing as too much fun.

Sure! Make lots more epoxy resin projects. I never saw this one coming. Very cool😊

Also, a cheap alternative to getting a pressure chamber, just pour the resin in layers and use a blowtorch quickly over the resin. It will help remove the smaller bubbles. Also, might have been interesting to seal the entire thing in resin instead of using the glass again. It would make this level indestructible.
@matthewmccarthy5550 4 жыл бұрын
So not ever torch. Vacuum or controlled temp. If the project is small enough to refrigerate for 25 min to retard the hardening process do that. This will give more time for the bubbles to escape. Applying high heat to the surface accelerates the fine upper layer to cure faster then the lowers trapping the air bubbles. Even if you are only pouring 1/16/ to 1/8 at a time. It will also leave your final coat to have ripples as well as over yellow the resins for the reaction exceeding critical reaction temperatures. Getting a used mini ac unit or window unit and creating a cool box is the the best way hands down. I have a few river tables resting now.

For the non-foggy resin, you can put on a coat of resin over it and it’ll make it transparent, the outside is foggy because you were sanding it. But you can easily fix that with more resin.

Wow this is beautiful! I loved every second of it - I love the contrast of the original wood showing through the resin along with the brass fixtures. Thank you :)
