I love that you admit your mistake. I also love the improvise, adapt, and overcome. Sure signs of a mast of his craft. That’s a rare trait these days. Amazing work fellas.
Stunning as always, Dylan. The guys looked like they were proud to show off their handiwork inside the house. What a fabulous way to decorate their home, with your creations.... heirloom quality. No doubt you learned from your mistakes ie the saw blades. Snuggles to Charlie... G'day from Australia
Next time you change a blade on the track saw instead of removing the whole side just drop the blade down and unscrew the bolt through the hole drop the blade down. Turns a 5 minute blade change into a 30 second blade change
Love these videos. Watching you all pour the resin is like serenity therapy. As far as the saw issue, it might have been easier to trim a bit more off the wood side and less of the resin side.
All of your glorious work in this home is STUNNING! But I love the counter top the very best. I need to win the Power Ball so that I can commission you guys to deck out the interior of my post and beam home in Maine. I'm always so glad to come home from work and find one of you videos up late on a Friday night. Thank you again for your channel! Have an awesome week.
They use diamond saw blades to cut Marble, and Marble is 20 times harder than River rock. And I love your company and your videos are freaking awesome. I live in Texas, and I am Carpenter, and I am going to start using your Epoxy for river tables and Cabinets.
Forget side boob we got side dimple. I wasn’t to sure about the pebbles but after it was polished up it looked real nice. Would have like to have seen it lit up. Great video.
The owners of this house must have permasmiles when they're at home. The amazing work you've done at this place has been such a pleasure to watch. This bar is one of my favourites. The edge stones really work well i think, thank you
Beautiful counter top, as per your usual high standards. Hope you are all safe and well and aren’t affected by all of the extreme heat your country is suffering from. Stay safe. 🐶🇬🇧
I have a friend of mine who is building his house in Georgia who almost lost his hand when he forgot to remove a nail in a board he was cutting with a circular saw. The blade hit the nail and broke in two sending the broken piece straight into the back of his hand. He now has a 7 inch Nike Swoosh shaped scar on his hand. Always be safer and not sorry with power tools...
Those river rocks are beautiful in that piece really outstanding work! Thanks so much for all the work and time to make these videos of these projects and the delivery and set up for us to see how it’s all done! Much appreciated, keep up the great work team Black Forest! 🐶👍👋
Hey, when things go wrong they certainly go wrong. Brad to the rescue! Despite the problems this top turned out amazing, looks great installed. What's happened to Spencer's hair! Maybe a trip to the stone mason's to get it cut but the epoxy might not do so well with the wet saw? Thanks for sharing, enjoy all your vid's even when thing's do go wrong. Show's you Guys are human after all. Cheers Michael.
Finishing watching this. What about blades for concrete. I used one on the blocks to make to make decorative raise for garden. May.be look into that. It was my brothers saw and can’t remember which blade worked best I thought it was the diamond blade.
Actually this mistake could be the beginning of a new process. As a stone turner(alabaster) that has calcite chips in it I have found slow speeds with carbide cutters turn out excellent finishes and doesn't ruin the cutting tools
A diamond blade may work a treat for rocks in resin. Use regular carbide for resin, getting close to rocks. A SMALL amount of water may be needed to keep blade from clogging.
This place would be my dream job for my second career, by that I mean I'm in to deep at my current career choice so I'd wait until I can retire from it. Then I'd work at this place for free just to learn and enjoy the build process.
The table really came out nice. I would think it would be interesting if you made the same kind of table but use rocks that have small fossils in it. You probably couldn't darken the epoxy much or you would be able to see the details of the fossils in the rocks.
Haha thank you!! The Festool works for us for cutting epoxy, I think the thickest we've done is 4" inches though so if it's thicker than that I don't know for sure!
Does the legs that you guys designed go to the edges of the tables? If so doesn’t that cause a problem for the people sitting at the short ends of the tables with their feet having dodge the legs? 12:35
Hi Dillon and Joe🤗 love the river rocks, but not at the cost of the blades unless you calculate that in the cost. It does have a cool look. What about longevity?
As a way to avoid destroying more blades in the future, maybe deliberately widen the resin portion to allow for shifting rocks or the occasional miscalculation. This comment, of course, has the advantage of hindsight, I know. Still, you likely are not going to abandon a design option like "rocks in the river" over one difficult experience. As others mentioned, there are dedicated rock saws. How those deal with epoxy, I have no clue.
I was taught that dominos add no strength to hold it together i dunno why people think that any pro woodworker would teach you that so when u dont use dowels ur strictly relying on the glue strength to hold it together
Hey now I know I can use my track saw as a rock saw 😂😉 and now festool won't let black forest sell their products anymore 😂🤣. Have a question for you guys. Is there any way to make epoxy hold up to (drinking) alcohol better?
Wrong cutting disks. Need one with diamond cutting teeth designed for granite, asphalt, limestone, cinder blocks and concrete. Ideal with a water saw , however since youre only cutting the occasional rock, dry cutting should be fine. Festool sell a 210mm diamond blade for like $300.

IMO, perhaps the planning should have been for the design to drive the tools, not the tools dictating the design. That way if the rocks moved, or calculations were close, your tools would have been able to cover the problem. Good results in the end.
I love that you admit your mistake. I also love the improvise, adapt, and overcome. Sure signs of a mast of his craft. That’s a rare trait these days. Amazing work fellas.
Thanks so much! We like to show our fails and successes! It's important to show both to teach!
There is saw blades made for cutting rock and concrete that you can put into circular saws.
ikr, what a bunch of peanuts
Probably wouldn't fit the festool
@@byever1 They come in all varieties of diameter and arbor. I bet you two bits to a pail of hen shit, that you can find a blade to fit the festool
Maybe next time, haul the piece over to a granite counter top manufacturer. They use water saws with diamond blades. ✌
Hahaha good idea!
Stunning as always, Dylan. The guys looked like they were proud to show off their handiwork inside the house. What a fabulous way to decorate their home, with your creations.... heirloom quality.

Snuggles to Charlie...
G'day from Australia
Thanks Carleen! Yes, we're definitely proud of our work!
Thank you for sharing everything.God bless you all.Awesome job as always.
Thanks as always Jean!
Next time you change a blade on the track saw instead of removing the whole side just drop the blade down and unscrew the bolt through the hole drop the blade down. Turns a 5 minute blade change into a 30 second blade change
lol
So now you will have clients requesting the sliced rock edge. It is very cool.
Haha, at least something good came out of our mistake!

Wow thanks so much Rob, that's very kind!
It would have been extremely nice if you could have done the entire interior of the house.
Outstandingly impressive job. Well done.
Charlie the anteater! Oh yeah, awesome work on the bar too. Burning up blades are expensive lessons, but one that will not happen again I would think…
Hahaha, we can always count on Charlie to cleanup bugs for us! And yes, a very expensive lesson!
Beautiful counter top, as per your usual high standards. Hope you are all safe and well and aren’t affected by all of the extreme heat your country is suffering from. Stay safe. 🐶🇬🇧
Thank you so much David, luckily the heat has cooled down to the lower 20's for most of the week!

Oh wow, I'm glad he still has his hand!!
Awesome workmanship.
Thank you!!
😱my saw..........€800 here to buy......epic job guys 👍👍👍🇮🇪
Oh dear, that was scary. Even Charlie steered clear of the shenanigans. Glad you guys could sort it out though 😊
Yes, us too!
Would you do a video on how you flatten and sand these big tables?
Those river rocks are beautiful in that piece really outstanding work! Thanks so much for all the work and time to make these videos of these projects and the delivery and set up for us to see how it’s all done! Much appreciated, keep up the great work team Black Forest! 🐶👍👋

He just got a haircut
and yes, good idea haha
Stunning! Wish I worked in your shop! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Maybe one day!
Fun stuff. Love your work
Thanks Kurt!
The rocks on the edge do look cool I like it.
The river rocks are beautiful 👍🏼👏🏼
Thanks Madeleine!!!

Thanks for the tips Dale!!!
Um, water cooled diamond saw, maybe? Hi everybody hope you all are doing okay, live and learn and thanks for another great video.
They don’t make one of those in a track saw
Diablo does
A diamond blade may work a treat for rocks in resin. Use regular carbide for resin, getting close to rocks. A SMALL amount of water may be needed to keep blade from clogging.
Gorgeous 😍
Thank you! 😊
You should do a table with geode slices in it
That would be cool!!
Beautiful house.
Agreed!
You guys are awesome. Fantastic work!
Thanks so much!
"Feature" That's what Microsoft calls a bug
you were an hr away from my work we could have lunch., and of course great job
I thought the rule was measure twice cut once. 😂😂😂
Hahaha not in this case
Loved it. Nice job on the counter top
Thank you!!
F/A you guys Rock great job
Thank you!!
Really like the end to end projects!
Thanks Mark!
I really enjoy what you do, keep up the good work guys!
Thanks so much!
Great video!!! The cut rocks look good. Thanks for showing us the build and installation. Always enjoyable. Keep up the good work!!!
Thanks John!!!
Forgot the exposed rock looks great and isn't it about time to have a Jo coloring party.
Thank you! And haha what colour should he do next?
@@BlackForestWoodCo Probably something bright and noticeable.
Beautiful items
This place would be my dream job for my second career, by that I mean I'm in to deep at my current career choice so I'd wait until I can retire from it. Then I'd work at this place for free just to learn and enjoy the build process.
Maybe once you get the saw fixed then try adding another chilled table
The table really came out nice. I would think it would be interesting if you made the same kind of table but use rocks that have small fossils in it. You probably couldn't darken the epoxy much or you would be able to see the details of the fossils in the rocks.
That would be interesting!!
Wow, I’m not stalking, it’s later here in Bulgaria 🤦♀️
That was the best one yet guys hahahaha that’s crazy. Hey what kind of blade works good cutting through acrylic? Like thick acrylic
Haha thank you!!
The Festool works for us for cutting epoxy, I think the thickest we've done is 4" inches though so if it's thicker than that I don't know for sure!
@@BlackForestWoodCo so just the blade it comes with is fine, and I meant actual acrylic
Why not use a the aluminum cutting blade made for the TS75? Or the one from cmt for cutting cement board?
I am surprised that they don't make a water cooled saw, similar to what is used to cut porcelain and stone in the flooring and countertop industry
Lol good thinkin' on the diamond blade! How did you guys come up with it?!
I watch these young guys killing it and realize I wasted my life doing nothing!
No you didn't, there's always time to try something new!!
@@BlackForestWoodCo you are absolutely correct, thank you!! Love your work!
Very good
Thank you!
Does the legs that you guys designed go to the edges of the tables? If so doesn’t that cause a problem for the people sitting at the short ends of the tables with their feet having dodge the legs? 12:35
Use a diamond cement blade with water for cooling.
Yes, that would have been way smarter haha
so sick
want to see you turn on the LEDs
Hi Dillon and Joe🤗 love the river rocks, but not at the cost of the blades unless you calculate that in the cost. It does have a cool look. What about longevity?
Beautiful countertop. Absolutely love the added river rocks. ♥️
Thanks so much Maddie!

you couldn't find a masonry blade..?
that would fit most saws..?
and would likely cut through resin like butter..?
Here a hint! Water feed tile saw. Will cut them rocks like butter.
This time is a bug, not a feature :D Love your work Guys
More wood, less plastic!!!
Awesome!
Seems like it must be hard to get all the air bubbles out of the epoxy with the rocks...
I wonder if there's some kind of carbide blade you could have used haha...
Nice job!
Thank you!!!
How did you guys install the floating shelves and bench? Vary cool
You can see the rest of the delivery here: czcams.com/video/7TevqhqttEk/video.html
you need a concrete blade score the resin close to rocks finish with concrete blade.
What about the scratches on the resin part ?
Christ. And such a beautiful saw.
I know haha
OOPS! It happens tho! Brilliant work!
Thanks Gabriel!
Hey now I know I can use my track saw as a rock saw 😂😉 and now festool won't let black forest sell their products anymore 😂🤣.
Have a question for you guys. Is there any way to make epoxy hold up to (drinking) alcohol better?

WHY did U NOT USE DIAMOND BLADES tile saw or block saw
I think it would look so cool if you did a bowtie in the resin side of the miter joint.
Split Rock Finish. Feel free to use it to describe this premium option.
Haha thank you Scott!
That depends if the look was worth $450 in saw blades and a $1000 track saw!!
Diamond Tip Blade
You didn't show it lit up with LEDs once.
Olá amigo gosto muito do seu trabalho gostaria de intender o q está falando pra aprender como fãs estes serviços com resina se puder alguém puder traduzir por favor moro no Brasil .
Make yourself some clear resin dominoes to use them on the resin part.
i have about 1% of your experience doing anything like this and I would have used a masonry blade and circ saw from the very beginning
Why wouldn't you just trim a little wood of the backside to makeup for your measuring mistake instead of cutting through so many rocks?
Exactly what I was thinking
You should have seen the rocks coming before you mest up you blades
How many employees do y’all have?
Around 20 for the whole shop (including the store front)
IMO, perhaps the planning should have been for the design to drive the tools, not the tools dictating the design. That way if the rocks moved, or calculations were close, your tools would have been able to cover the problem. Good results in the end.
Can you try adding classical music
Their very expensive piece of equipment is a Festool TS 75 EQ at around 700€ or something. It's not that expensive.
"It's not a bug, it's a feature"
how does it not bow in the middle being so long
“Feature not a bug”
Preciso intender o acabamento final obrigado.
Nahhh you guys just need an evolution track saw and blade. Slow rpms minimal sparks and cuts wood and metal... And probably stone.
How do you sharpen carbide? Stone....think about it
why do I look at the blade and think it’s backwards lol
Gostaria de ir aí na sua empresa voc és receberia nos aí em duas pessoas
You do know they make Masonary blades right? 🤔
