    I love how I always find something new in your videos that I never would have thought of, like a bench cookie dispenser, that is amazing! And well, the incredible shelf project, but I love to find things that are secondary to the main topic of the video

  • @alwaysworking7899
    @alwaysworking7899 Před 3 lety

    Tyvek tape is the best thing I’ve found for epoxy pours, no leaks and it comes off super easy with a little heat. Shelves look awesome definitely going to have to build some.

    Love this look! I'll use it for a "cat walk" in my house for my cats. They'll love it! Thanks April!!

    April, thank you for this video! It's one of my favorite of the recent ones you've done, probably because I've been designing a project much like this in my mind. Super helpful tip on the rockler hardware. Also, I love the live edge part of your shelves. I may need to consider incorporating live edge into my project as well! Cheers!

    Thanks April..you're the best. I have 2 large Black Walnut slabs that I decided to break down for smaller projects. Plenty 'o character defects. Your vid right on time as usual and got one heck of a deal on what is the first Epoxy (TotalBoat) I will have ever used. Got a spot for a shelf arrangement just like this. Love all your content.

    Very cool April. I've got a couple small pieces of live edge from a reclaimed wood store thats been sitting around too long. I was going to make them bookends but, shelves....perfect idea. Thanks so much. Please, Be safe - Be well.

    @DigitalN8v Před 3 lety +1

    Hey April love the eraser trick with the tape, I gotta try it sometime... But a cool tip I like to use the most and is most convenient is the roll of tape itself, just use the whole roll to slide across the edge thats taped.. It usually works out everytime and is quick , easy and already in ur hand or near by.

  • @W4ABN

    @2H80vids Před 3 lety

    It's pretty cool how the use of epoxy has saved so many pieces of wood from the fire. A lot of the slices with critter-holes etc wouldn't have been used before but, with epoxy being in common use now, these bits are being used in decorative projects. A win/win. 😁✔👍

    April, you are so talented! You have inspired so many women to just get up and do what makes them happy. Woodworking isn't just for men. I get stuck worrying that no one will like what I make, but it's not about what others think. it's about enjoying what you are doing.
    LOVE RESPECT KINDNESS ONLY MATTERS! Spread IT!
