EDIT: for some reason when uploading it cut the last 40 sec. ugghhh!!
What I would do differently is, I would totally seal the wood before encapsulating it in epoxy in the mold.
Oh ok, nice couch jump by the way
😂 thanks 😊
Those look soooo good! This is by far the easiest method with wood that I have seen. I think I can make these! Thank you!
You’re welcome! Good luck with your project
@@GoodViewWoodworks When you say 'seal the wood' do you mean to like paint it on with the same epoxy Im going to pour on it?
Yes, that’s correct.

Thank you!!
Wow, simple and beautiful..
Thank you i
Great job Nathan. I just recieved my molds today, that you mentioned the other day, from Amazon. Yes, I'd definitely seal the wood first. 👍
Knot By Nature thank you!! Good luck!
I’ve used these molds but always had the “lip” side down. Like the top totally smooth. Have made walnut and spalted maple coasters but dying to try a burl - great job. The Peel Coat is one I’ll have to try if available here in Canada. Love your videos,keep up the good work.
Thanks Andy!! I appreciate that!!
Your baby girl is so beautiful. Oh and I love the coasters lol.
Thank you so much! She is beautiful!
@@GoodViewWoodworks you are so very welcome 🙂
AMAZING. Thank you for sharing. I did mine without molds. Feel Free to check them out. But I took some pine wood (1x6) about 36" long, cut center out with a router bit (not all the way through), sanded down, filled the cut out with some UpStart Epoxy Deep pour and sanded some more. Cut down to size 5, 4" squares. Turned out great.
Nice !
Followed your link and bought the molds!
Does the wood need to sit Flush in the mold before pouring the Resin Thank you
Yes and I would glue it down with a small amount of epoxy first.
Baby is still trying to find who you’re talking with. 😂
Looks 👍🏽 great.. what size did you cut down the wood to?
So I was really eager & excited after watching this video, lol, and made my first wood resin coasters using a flat round silicone cake mold that has 6 circles and I had round wood slices that I broke up. The problem that occurred is on the bottom of each one, the wood did not get completely covered w/ resin. Ugh! What should I do to fix these? In the future, should I pour a little resin on the bottom or paint in on the wood first? should I do both of those things?
Both of those things will certainly help!
Sealing the wood first will prevent air bubbles from leaking out and into resin.
What did you fill the holes with and what was the spray coat you used?
Did you use any higher grit sand paper than 320?
Those are beautiful by the way.
Can you use cork on the bottom of the coasters Thank you
Yes you can. But in this application you would see the cork through the transparent epoxy
Can you put a link in for the coaster molds you used from Amazon? Great video!
It’s there now, sorry about that!! Thank you!
Nice job . Would you recommend incredible solutions epoxy?
Yes I would!
Did you refill the holes in the bottom of the coasters with epoxy or did you use the spray on to cover them?
Thanks for your information.
I had cover them. CA glue works great
How long to you wait before you comeback to create swirling affect on both the thin pours and 2 inch thick pours?
I wait until the consistency is like thick honey. Times differ based on temperature and thickness
Did I miss you say what you would not do? I did get a phone call so I may have been distracted. LOL Your baby is adorable and they turned out nice! Cheers, Amy
Yes, I added it at the end. Lol 😂 thank you so much!!!
@@GoodViewWoodworks I will go back that is about the time my sister called. LOL
I am not finding the added content about what you would do differently
@@scottward2366 I went back and still can not find it. Time stamp pkease.
I’m so sorry there was an error uploading and it didn’t upload the last 40 seconds... ugh
Great video Nathan. Really enjoyed it. Have you been welding or just caught the sun?? Dude get that sunscreen on😂
😂 thanks dude! Naw I have a skin disorder called seborrheic dermatitis. It makes me look like I have a sunburn 😆
GoodView Woodworks Awww bless you!! Didn’t mean to poke fun! Only mentioned it as I spent three hours outside my shed sanding some slabs and burnt my head!! And I have no hair for protection 🤪😳. Take care!!👍
Pedro de Gales it’s all good no harm at all!! I’m not sensitive about it or anything 😉😂😆😂
First comment!!
What can i use to remove the bubbles from the surface of the resin if i don't have a heat gun?
You can use a torch or spray some isopropyl alcohol on the surface
How long was the wait between the first and second pour? TIA
It was about 8 hours
What did you spray on the bottom of the coasters? And how well did it work?
I didn’t spray anything. They popped out perfectly
GoodView Woodworks I thought you used some rustoleum no slip or something like that? Must have been a different video I had watched of yours as well
Elizabeth Esquivel I’m sorry, I didn’t read very well. I thought you meant the molds themselves. I sprayed a rubber rustoleum spray on the bottom called “Peel Coat “
GoodView Woodworks thank you I’ll give that a try 👏🏼👍🏼
You never said what you'd do differently.
How’s the buns going
😂
You never did say what you would do differently
My bad… I would seal the wood first before putting it in the mold
I’ve wondered about that when I’ve watched others make coasters. Why do you think it would be better?
It would’ve gotten rid of any bubbling and kept the wood from moving after the epoxy cured.
