Welcome to Kardamov Makes! I'm Apostol. This channel is about my way of documenting my experiments and adventures in woodworking, designing, casting (epoxy, concrete, plaster etc), mould making and overall making stuff.
I also hope you learn a few things from my videos, and above all, I hope my videos inspire you to make and build.
Thank you for reading and keep being creative!

I Love How This Project Turned Out | Making an Astonishing Table Lamp
In this video, I attempted one of my most complicated projects yet-this one-of-a-kind table lamp crafted from wood, concrete, and a bit of epoxy. The end result is a brilliant piece that combines different textures and materials beautifully.
This project tested my skills and patience. Working on such a detailed project is a great way to refine techniques and practice, while also exploring new methods to enhance efficiency.
This modern table lamp not only illuminates but also adds a touch of elegance to any room. Hmmm, my room. :)
I hope you like it, and feel free to comment with any questions or feedback!

How is this simple???
Nice. A great combination of concrete and wood
Bummer, no link or mention about the chisel being used to get that texturing. Hopefully it won’t be too hard to find one that can do something similar to that texturing work.
Nicely done!
nice
Thanks

Hi Apo, that's a really nice and creative video. Thanks a lot for sharing.
Thanks. Hope you enjoy the video.
Always enjoy your creativity 👏👏
Thank you so much :)
Hi Apostol, Great table lamp project and I like the video. Have subscribed and will watch more. Regards James One Handed Maker - Australia.
Thanks for the sub! I appreciate it.
Very cool build. Do you have to do anything to seal the concrete, or is it good enough as it comes out of the mold?
Thanks. I rather apply concrete sealer. It adds a bit more protection.
Looks great
Thanks!
Cool idea! Like it!
Thank you! Cheers!
🔥
👍
Me encanta el resultado final. El diseño es súper lindo y con detalles que lo hacen ver elegante. Se vería muy bien en mi sala!
Thanks, appreciate it. Unfortunately, its already claimed :)
This Box Looks very beautiful!! I wonder, if it got cracks because you added the inner parts to keep the top in a perfect position. Actually theese parts would prevent the outer parts from shrinking if they should because of a change of the humidity of the surrounding Air.🤷
Thanks. I am still using it and it looks as good as new. Not cracks so far.
Beautiful work!! Do you know what species the wood is? It looks fantastic.
Thank you.Not 100%sure but I believe it is Robinia.
Super Ergebnis! 😍
Danke :)
great work !
Thanks a lot!
-How many clamps do you have? -Yes.
Not enough, I think.
What did you put on it at 10m45 ?
It's concrete sealer. (Mellerud Stein Platten Versiegelung)
@@KardamovMakes Merci !
Great job
Thanks!
the carving really looks like the bark of the tree. Great project! It reminds me that I need to use my eight million pieces of scrap walnut i've never thrown away🤦🏻♂️😜
It does look like a bit. Thanks.
I love the look of the box, time consuming but worth it lol. Awesome job! Thanks for sharing.
Thanks a lot!
Hermoso trabajo.
Thank you!
Мастеру браво!!!
Thanks!
Which kind of finish do you use ?
I used %80 Bondex Hardwood oil mixed with %20 Hard Wax Oil. I am not sure if you can find the brands outside Germany.
The box looks amazing. What finish did you use?
Thank you! I used %80 Bondex Hardwood oil mixed with %20 Hard Wax Oil. I am not sure if you can find the brands outside Germany.
@KardamovMakes thanks for replying, I'll take a look
WOW!!!❤❤❤❤👍💓🔥
😊
Amazing work. What finish do you use?
Thank you! I used %80 Bondex Hardwood oil mixed with %20 Hard Wax Oil. I am not sure if you can find the brands outside Germany.
@@KardamovMakes I believe Bondex is a solvent based oil. Probably similar to teak or tung oils
Where’s a new video??
Had an extremely busy winter. Hopefully I'm gonna be able to finish the new video in few weeks.
lovely work
Thanks!

Really amazing project! Thank you. I really enjoyed this video.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Such a difficult job. I can't imagine how much it might cost.😅
It definitely takes time. Unfortunately, I wouldn't be able to afford it myself.
It remind me Kosambi wood naturally when open the skin tree looks like you carving
I don't think I have see that before. I will check it out.
Look really interesting your design...great job and dont forget follow us too..👍🧡
Thank you! Cheers!
That is badass, man! Beautiful job!
Thank you!
super little box 👍👍👍💯 I remember the technique for locking the small parts on your format saw using a rail press 😉👍 great idea. thank you for this video 🙏😉
Thanks 👍
That added texture made it soooo beautiful 😍 way to go!
Thanks, it puts the box in another league. I agree:)
What finish did you apply?
Check the comment from DogDog173 .
What should I put in such a cool box?
I'd put something that you use quite often then you can have the box somewhere you see every day ;)
I made it for a bottle of wine
this video is awesome bro! Thanks for your channel!
Thanks mate!
Awesome job! Simple yet stunning design. It's refreshing to watch a video about actually build something instead of these CZcams woodworkers trying to sell you tools. Never once did you have to mention what kind of tools you used to create this beautiful box. In my opinion, it doesn't matter what you use to create your project, what matters is what your project looks like when you're finished. Great video
Thanks for the comment. I agree that the end product is more important than what you use to my it.
how much would you sell something like this - asking cus im a new woodworker and im not sure how to price time consuming projects. thanks. its awesome btw.
Advice I got was the price of materials should be the lostest "labour" cost. As time go on and you have experience, pricing won't be such a problem. Good luck 👍
There are so my different opinions about this topic. I suggest, there are some videos about that topic on CZcams. Just watch few of them and come up with number that feel good to you.
