- Making a giant epoxy resin dining table using black deep pour epoxy resin and olive wood. Wood has been kiln dried and ready to work with and I am using Vista Mariana deep pour resin to create this one of a kind $15 000 USD dining table. Never attempted anything in this size but what could go wrong? Haha
Finished with Rubiomonocoat Pure and applied ceramic coating for additional protection.
After creating a smaller coffee table in the same concept and color, my landlord at the workshop requested a dining table. Without any hesitation, I immediately started working on it. The significant advantage was that it was conveniently located nearby, making transportation much easier.

Just wondering if you could have or should have made it as a three or four part sleeved table to make it more easily movable so it doesn’t take 5 guys to set-up.
He speaks!
Realy great work and craftmenship!
I would go for a black or dark blue table, maybe with a few sprinkles as star lights but that may be also a bit too much. I could also image the same colour as the chairs are in.
Thank you so much 😀
The black is classic and compliments the Olive wood beautifully. A lot of hard work and some pretty tedious, but a beautiful job, nonetheless. I always wanted a 4 foot round game table with Black Walnut and White resin. The combination favors cows hide. God Bless and thank you for sharing.
Thank you so much 😀
How about a lava glowing table?
g@DavidsWoodturning
Incredibly beautiful! I love how much olive wood is in there. The table is just gorgeous! Great job!!! 😊
Thank you so much 😀
Black epoxy all the way. Great to hear you back with some commentary 👍👍
Thank you so much 😀
I will credit as I am in USA and your speaking measurements for all. It’s appreciated for us. Great build.
Thank you so much 😀
Phenomenal table!! It's absolutely gorgeous, David!!!
Thank you so much 😀
I would likely have gone with a semi transparent black so you can see down into the table. Great looking piece.
Yes, I would prefer that although it does look great as it is but yeah, to see down in between the pieces of wood is a great idea for another project.
Yes, I definitely want this table.
Thank you 🙂
It’s awesome pal. Well done and hope you’re keeping ok 👍😊
Thank you so much pal 😀
Beautiful job mate. Well done. We're currently getting a Norfolk pine kitchen bench made with a mahogany resin. Should look amazing.
Absolutely stunning. 🤩
Thank you so much 😀
Gorgeous. I like the black a lot, but I think it would also be beautiful in either a cobalt-blue or very dark forest green...
Beautiful! Nice work. 👏
Thank you very much!
Absolutely stunning! I would have such a hard time choosing a color. First i thought red but also blue would be beautiful for a beach home
Thank you so much!
Very beautiful. And im sure was a lot of long hours . You are a true artist thanks for sharing
Thank you so much 😀
This is a beautiful table mate, great job.
Thank you! Cheers!
Amazing work. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you! Cheers!
Stunning! 😍
Thank you! Cheers!
it’s not really my cup of tea but it’s still nice seeing your work go into it
You could have build a house with all those shavings 😂 The table is absolutely stunning! Amazing!
I enjoyed every second of the video and of course the table is immaculate
Thank you so much 😀
Funny you said blue. I was thinking the same thing as well. For some reason, it seems like it would work very well.
I would have gone with transparent epoxy (light grey, pale blue or even clear) so the sides of the 'cushions' of olive wood can be seen. And yes I would put that in my house if I had space!
Thank you for the feedback . Yeah that would have been very nice too.
Wow, what a fantastic project. I couldn’t imagine how much time and dedication it would have taken to put together. Whether you wood turn your items or work with wood you are very talented indeed. I hope to see more of your amazing items x
Thank you so much Charlotte 😀 Appreciate the kind words!
Wow, that table is AMAZING!! I love the black. I also think a deep red would be awesome with that wood, perhaps with a little hint of bronze sparkle to give it some swirly movement.
I would try a dark blue but this looks fantastic
Thank you 🙂
Nice work! Maybe I would add a little deep purple in with the black but super look, love it!
Florida
Oh, it is so nice to hear your voice again. I really like your explanations and I was sad when you stopped doing them because of some trolls.
Damn David, Go big or go home for you first go and WOW you did go BIG and you smashed it HOME!
Congrats
Aston @ IWMS
Super cool
Super beautiful 😍
Thank you! Cheers!
Exelent job Mr David. Pozdrawiam from Poland. Im learning from you a lots of useful tips. Thank you.
what a gorgeous table 👍
It's a beautiful table a n d yes if we could afford it.
Wow 15,000 dollars
Very good job. Keep it up!! I would definitely put this table in my house and I loved the black resin color.
Congratulations for this extraordinary table, David! If it had to be mine I probably would have gone with a dark purple or army green.
Lovely. Wish i could afford a house that this table would fit in.😂 I'm not a fan of the black though. I think I'd go with a more natural dark brown. A tone that matches the original bark.
Beautiful job ,love it ..
OMG 😮😮😮😮😮 I wish, oh I WISH 😍😍😍😍
Thank you so much 😀
I love it, the black is perfect, I also think a dark hunter green would suit the olive wood as well. I'm also partial to blue
Thank you so much 😀
That is a beautiful table. I felt it was a bit too woody however it is absolutely beautiful. The other colors I might think of is translucent blue, or opaque white.
Thank you so much 😀
Perfection - stunning, love it - the black is superb! Would definitely have that table in my house (would have to move to a bigger house though). You must be knackered after making that huge table!! 🤩🥵👍
Colour, well there's a thing, amber maybe, walnut but blacks good.
Surprised you stopped at such a low grit, thought you'd have gone to at least a couple of thousand.
Olive is awesome, love your DIY router sled with the hinged handle.
Nice job.
Очень, очень красиво получилось. Мастера Вы настоящие
Hi! Amazing table. Can you please let us know how you build your DIY router sled. Maybe a short video. Thank you!
It’s beautiful and I’d love it in my house!
That is beyond impressive! You are such an inspiration to those of us who turn but even more to the artists who turn. Can you tell me please, what was in the spray bottle that you used to clean out the little holes/voids before you filled them with resin. Doesn't a liquid trap off color dust in the voids?
Very nice!!! Great job!!!
Thank you very much!
@@DavidsWoodturning Your welcome :)))
I'd take that table! Black is my choice.
A really dark purple with the "sparkles" would like amazing.
Thank you 🙂
That table would look much much better with blue resin
Brutal !!!!🔥🤜🏻
Really well done and fantastic table! I would have been terrified routing would have chipped the resin? Must have been very shallow passes? Stay safe.
If I were to make this table for myself I would do something a bit more complex than what you did. Since it's such a big, complex table and I'd be spending a TON of money, and a LOT of time to make it, I would start with a semi transparent black (just like what you have hear, but I would want to have a small bit of light pass through.. I would put RGB LEDs in the bottom of the table, in the same rectangle shape about halfway between the edge and the center, all the way around.. so I would want some of that light to come through) but I would try to fade from that black on the bottom up to a clear surface... I'm not sure how many pours it would take, but I would want to mix the layers of pours with each other.... So I couldn't let the layer get to the hardness that you got this one to, because I would try to swirl the layers together manually, if possible. (it would take a LOT of babysitting to do this, but I may not be able to use the same epoxy you used.... heck I have no idea if there is even an epoxy that this would work with.... so I might just have to forego the manual swirling)
I would also try to place the cookies in a way that could use darker epoxy under any overhangs to create am exaggerated shadow around one or two sides of each one (I don't think I would do a very good job of describing the idea I have in my head, so I'll just leave at this lol) Basically I would want to have a VERY 3D shadow effect using the LEDs and the darker areas of epoxy... But I think I would HAVE TO experiment a bit on some small sample pieces before I did it on something the scale of the table.... :)
Wow! What a beautiful table! 💜
It turned out amazing! Thank you so much for sharing it with us!
I do have one question. I saw that you have some kind of push stick attached to your router how did you accomplish that? 😊
Solid content pal,
New sub earned.
I hope same day can do something like this
Thought this video was from another channel at first. I’m not an expert but I don’t think there was any wood turning here.
All jokes aside, great video, great table. Very nice to hear your commentary again!
Did you not see my lathe in the background? 😅 Appreciate the kind words! Turning to resume from next week :)
Beautiful table. I may have done a mix of colors? Or put some sparkles in the black. Either way, it's an amazing project.
Thank you so much 😀
I would love it to be Ocean blue
A vey beautiful table David.
Thank you so much Jack 😀
That's amazing
Thank you so much 😀
I think like a lava red would of look nice too
Very lovely table look well nice
Thank you so much 😊
Beautiful table! I'd love to own such a beautiful piece of art! I would have gone with a lighter color - something closer to brown I think.
Thank you so much 😀
I'd never put this in my house. That's because I don't have space for it, hah! She's a real beauty though. I could totally see hanging a section of that up as wall art or making smaller table tops just like it, though. I'm not brave enough to attempt resin pours.
Piece of art 🎨 ✨️
Thank you 🙂
Great job!
Just. WOW!
Thank you so much 😀
I would’ve used a Turquoise color for the resin
Thanks for sharing
Allah bless you 🙏
I probably use my three favorite colors purple baby blue and neon pink
Thank you 🙂
@@DavidsWoodturning you're welcome
"Nanolayer" of anything can't provide any significant protection. One nanometer of material is only about 10 atoms thick (depends on what kind of atoms, of course). No matter how strong the material, you can probably remove several tens of nanometers of it by just rubbing it with finger.
Epoxy/wooden table is inherently not super durable. It may be somewhat resistant for scratches if the wood and resin are good, but it is vulnerable to hot objects and UV (the latter can be addressed with careful selection of the resin).
It's gorgeous!!!! Why didn't u use the scratch resistant resin for bars n table tops?
Thank you so much 😀 My customer wanted a matt finish, table top resins creates a high gloss finish
I never knew there were nano protective finishes.
Yes, very similar to those they apply for cars. But these are designed for tables/furniture
Hi this is Rocky Fernandes from Bombay India
I absolutely love what you've created but unfortunately in Bombay we do not have a lot of space in our houses something like London or else id have loved to order one of these for my dining rooms.
The only difference between London and Bombay is that Bombay infrastructure is not so developed as of London it is developing
We will put you guys behind us in the coming 10 to 15 years like we beat you in GDP last year😂
As regards the colour I'd like it made in aqua blue or cyan as you guys refer it to meaning the inside border
The final border would be of light green colour I'd call it " *PISTA GREEN COLOUR* "
I know he says sold for $15,000 but is there honestly a market for this or is it just a few people in the world willing to spend that much money on a table? Cause it seems fun and I'd like to get into it as a hobby one day and maybe make some money doing it.
In my country 🇧🇷, US$15000 means over R$ 80000 reais! Very beautiful, but very expensive!
Thank you 🙂 They are not cheap that’s for sure. Both labour and material intestate project
Amazing.
Thank you so much 😀
Beautiful job. Did all of those "cookies" come from the same tree?
Thank you 🙂 I cannot answered that I al am afraid. Some looked like they are from the same tree
How many days it took you to finish it from the beginning and how much was your expenses
Anything but blue
It is beautiful, but I'd go a different color to brighten the whole effect. It has a very distinguished and formal look that just isn't me. A bright blue comes instantly to mind, or a carefully chosen red. It's kind of reminiscent of some Hawaiian shirts I've seen with the black background. I do really like it though and would never kick a table like that out of my house for any reason. Have I mentioned how beautiful it is?
Yes, I was thinking red would look beautiful! Not that the black wasn't, just more formal which isn't my taste
Thank you so much 😀 Blue would have been my go to colour but well this table was not made for me so followed what the customer wanted :)
Wouldn’t fit in my house ,and black is the only color I think pairs well
15kg for something over £30? Can’t find it anywhere on the website. How did you get such a good price?
Sorry that meant about 30 pounds in weight and not the currency 😊
Blue or green
Where did you get the wood from?
I would have gone with white.
I also would have covered it, in the product that Black Tail Studio sells.
Thank you 🙂 Covered in Black Forest Wood Co ceramic. They have been around for a lot longer tbh
gold or orange
Is the final layer kind of lacquer?
Hard wax oil then ceramic coating. Similar they put on cars for scratch protection

The skill set is ✅️ but your knowledge of wood will be the downfall. I personally would never risk selling and end grain table to a client
He is my workshop landlord, trust me he will be knocking on my door if… 😂
I would definitely be nervous to do this due to wood movement but do you think it will be fine since it’s kiln dried?
@@alexhill9853 was not just kiln dried but also air dried after the kiln for over a year. I honestly wouldn’t expect to my movement. Also it is constructed out of small pieces of wood as opposed a big slab which has grain running across 10ft . But time will tell.
@@alexhill9853 wood moves,it always does. A 40" wide table 2" thick will expand and contract seasonally 1/8" plus. The table looks awesome. No doubt. But end grain cookies are as stable as an X girlfriend. Even after drying.
@@Newsmaxsensorsme 🤣 im gonna use that line all the time now!
No way in hell…. This was sold for 15k$
Your right. Thats way to cheap for a table this size involving much work!
There are a huge group of stupid people with too much money. Kudos to this guy
Ugliest table ever. Black epoxy and just attach steel legs to it. Why is epoxying wood so great? Just because it’s trendy…pfft hard pass
Glad you are not my my customer 😂
@@DavidsWoodturning Yeah I have good taste and respect quality craftsmanship and do woodworking. I respect mission arts and crafts furniture, which is far better than this junk…
@@LanceBenelli not sure then why did you click, watched and commented tho? But it massively helps me and the video so thanks!
Having different opinions is all good I have that too but don’t be a troll buddy. Tale care
@@DavidsWoodturning the video showed up in my feed so I wanted to see how bad it looked lol. How is anything I said above trolling?… Called honest critique
Well first of all no one paid 15000 dollars for your table bud....quit trying to overprice your crap for clicks
Not sure what is bigger, your lack of understanding on what goes into making one these tables hence its price potential or your age 😂
no,
Why not? What would you?
This table will crack and start to bend within 1.5 years at room temperature.
Why?
