Nice work on the maps and the video. Footage out of the Lumix looks great as well!

the N95 mask had no filters

[@mateostabio]

N95 is definitely not the mask you want to wear for this. I have organic vapour filters

Nice job and good video.
May I ask you how do you prevent the epoxy bleeding into the grains of the plywood. Did you seal the edges with something what is not shown in the video?
Thx for your answer...

[@mateostabio]

Hey thanks, cool that you know that it would bleed into the plywood layers. I didn’t know that with my first couple of maps. In this video it did bleed a little through but I sanded a little bit too much off the wood. What I did on the last map I made a few months ago was i glued the 2 back layers, and then I lacquered 1 or 2 coats, just to seal the wood, and then put the epoxy. That came out super clean. And the beauty of it was even if you get a bit of epoxy on the top wood layer. You can just clean it off with a Scot towel. Cheers!
