    Great job Chris! On your next epoxy project, you can put some Tyvek tape ( or something similar where epoxy won't stick to it) on the back edge and you should be able to peel it right off when it hardens!

      Good idea

      Would this pull up the layers on the sides as well? I am about to do a flood coat and have been wondering this 😅 would love to avoid the chiseling step at the end

    Hey buddy. I finally finished two projects using this method. Learned a lot from my mistakes. What I’d tell people is don’t be afraid to dig deep for the colors. Gives you more depth to work with should you need to do extra sanding, etc., or re-do a part. :)
    So awesome!!!

    You can pour liquid latex in the bottom of the mdf to put off easily the drips of epoxy

    WOW! What a great looking sign Chris. That thing really pops. Thanks for sharing. John.

    That's great! I haven't seen anyone else seal it with shellac. I'm going to have to try that (I don't have patience to seal with clear epoxy)... I REALLY liked your tip on setting the Z zero to the waste board, at the end. Never thought of that. That's going to save my waste-boards from now on!

    I love the way you zeroed the final bit with the backing from a PwnCNC sticker!! That's very resourceful!!

    • @ChrisPowellFSD
      @ChrisPowellFSD  Před 2 lety

      Haha that’s my go to for zeroing. It’s like the perfect shape and thickness.
