Love that you document the struggle. Makes it relatable but also helps us understand the problem solving aspect.

I really like the smaller one. These would make great tabletops as well!

Turning scrap into art. And a risk taker. As well as humorous. Subscriber.

Your love for sanding is inspiring 🤩

Both designs are absolutely gorgeous 🙌

First - great work as always, they look amazing and I love seeing your process. To your laser comments, *YES* you should get more ventilation on your laser exhaust. I worked in a shop where we were running a laser nearly constantly, mostly on plywood, and the smoke from that is nasty for both your shop (stains on the walls) and your health. There's both the wood itself and all the glue that holds the plywood together that's getting in the air. We were primarily etching, which puts off more smoke than cutting, but the health aspect is the same. It's also worth checking the exhaust hoses and pipes every once in a while as the glue can build up and constrict them, causing it to get out into the space more. Cleaning the attachment points is pretty easy and hoses can be replaced but, since the buildup mostly happens around the connection points, you may not have to do a lot of replacing.

Both look amazing. If you are looking into doing anything leather related with your laser, definitely do do after the vent if figured out. You'll see smoke but it also smells a bit like burned hair😅

Love the black circle around the small one! Glad you got the CNC working! They look great!

Enjoyed watching this vid thanks for sharing learned lots. 🌈 (them wallers are awesome … state of the art … )

You do some very cool stuff dude! A little tip for fitment gaps, glue on some edge-banding before you do you glue up to take up the gap all the way around the insert. Cheers!

One of the most impressive and eye-catching things you've built!

I'm digging the pattern on the smaller one, it's really aesthetically pleasing, but they're both awesome. Great work, as always, dude.

Love the pattern of the big one, has a certain MG Escher vibe to it!

Yas the methylated spirits or alcohol spray works and doesn’t create any heat for the reaction 😊

Can't wait to see these new experiments with the epoxy.

Luv your work hands up great!! On your pours you need to torch the bubbles out after a few minutes let them come to the top torch again then let it cure. That would solve a lot of the bubble problems.

There we 10 Woby-claps in this video.

Love your videos

Siiick!

do you ever do wood working projects with “regular” wood? seems you could make cool furniture pieces. i’ve seen some other people making cool stuff from pallet wood.

That sanding track is fire 🔥🤣🤣

Every woodworker loves sanding! We have to.

Another great project I’m so fascinated by your used to the skateboarders and the patterns you come up with. For your laser event there are 12 V fans that look like they go in computers or computer and stuff. You can get them up to 8 inches in diameter and just put it in the ductwork and let it suck at home through, just an idea I thought of it sitting on the couch watching you work. Have a good day.

The pattern that looks like fish scales is cool. Koi!

Love your vids, you are the best wood creator I didn’t know I needed. Keep up the stellar work. Inspirational

The moongels... 🥁🪕

been taking lessons from mister miagi. "epoxy on, epoxy off"

Whoa Bee

There we go!! 16:51

Ben: "I hate sanding" _works with wood_ XDDD Maybe he needs a vacuum pot to get the air out of the resin before pouring.

flipping outstanding!

Looks great! Nice way to do something with those scraps

Very cool Ben

a simple inline fan will sort the smoke out

those tiles remind me of fish scales. That would be cool if you made a big koi wall are or something out of them.

love this build man! Great job

I was so confused and looking around to see who was whistling the entire time!

Beautiful!!!

I have a similar laser and rather than paying for “laser exhaust fan” I bought a bathroom exhaust fan, it is for 3 bathrooms, so much better at 10% the price. And no noise.

I wonder if you could laser off the graphic on the bottom of the board? Would probably need a final sand after, but it might not be as much work.

Awesome as always :) WoooooHooooo!

I followed this struggle on IG, so i know the pain you had with it. They both turned out great and I'm torn trying to pick a favorite. I love the geometric design with the trapezoids, but the fish scales look really cool too. Genius move laying out the parts like you did for the laser cutting. Maximize output and minimize waste. Awesome project! Hope you feel better soon and thanks for sharing!

love when you scream ... do it more... it's perfect when I have my headphones ...

Can you make a pair of sunglasses frames ?

Grab an ac infinity fan 6 in model and the smoke will be gone. Just remove the factory fan when you install the new one.

Broo, looks sick as fkk

Awesome!! DD

Dude these are stunning I actually prefer the smaller one. More chaos. Would be interested see if u could do a chopping board/serving board with the recycled skate boards?? Looks amazing great video. I've emailed u get InTouch!! May be able help. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿👍😊

I’ve seen other YT creators use a spray can of something to get air bubbles out.

супер

Just curious, what type of epoxy do you use?

How do you calculate the angle and length of the pieces of your border so when you round it over it fits your circle? I need to do this myself and I dont know how to calculate it.

A lot of waste because line could have been done once without nesting gaps. Can put the pattern on the pieces and remove overlapping lines.

Ben: I hate sanding Also Ben: I spent several days on end sanding to make this entire stack of veneers. Also Ben: Then I started a side project which the waste material requires even more sanding.

What type of orbital sander is that? Love your work!!

I’ve been to the skate parks and skate shops and no one has scrap boards. Any chance I could get them from you? The same parts you used for this project? I’d love to try it out.

Ok So = Oh Queso

Ok, so.

Why don't you steam the decks then lress them flat, all tis work almost zero yeild😢makes no sense.

Is it safe to laser epoxy??? I know that you need to be VERY careful what materials that you laser because it can create deadly fumes. I thought that it is NOT safe to laser epoxy resin and doing so can release hydrogen cynanide!!!

Why does he keep screaming ~ silly human!

Please, please, please, invest in some PPE equipment. It’s extremely unsafe to handling uncurled resin(epoxy) without gloves and a filtration mask. Not to mention all that wood dust that collects in a wood shop. You should be using an n-95 mask anytime your creating substantial sawdust. Not only I am concerned for your personal health and safety here, but I am also concerned with how your casual treatment of safety protocols will affect your audience.I know that while many videos showcasing the process of building something are meant solely as entertainment and are not meant to serve as tutorials or examples, that many people use them as such anyway. And it seems pretty imprudent to not even include any disclaimers about what behaviours should not be modelled by viewers. I want to assure you that my comment is not meant in disrespect to you and your craft, but simply because I am finding it difficult to fully enjoy watching your video process without having constant concerns over your health and safety. Please take care. 🩷
