From the video
Answers: How do you make custom wenge table legs and finish a maple burl slab table?
- wenge table leg fabrication
- maple burl wood slab finishing
- epoxy pour for soft wood
- using acrylic woodworking jigs
- sanding and polishing wood slabs
What it concludes
- Adding acetone to deep pour epoxy thins it out and allows it to soak into porous, water-damaged areas of a wood slab.
- Wenge wood has a fantastic look but is a finicky, splintering pain to work with.
- Sanding up to 2000 grit and applying Rubio Monocoat over epoxy gives a granite-like appearance and smooth finish.
- Baltic birch is an affordable and sturdy alternative to steel plates for mounting table legs.
