Poured Epoxy Walnut Firehouse Table

[firefighter ontheside]

This is my first poured epoxy project.  It was a challenge and I will do better on the next ones.  I'm making one for each of our stations.  This is walnut plywood with solid walnut glued on edges.  The legs are aluminum made for me by a metal company.

That looks great! You say you'll do better on the next ones. I wonder how

Thanks. You can't tell in the picture, but there's a few fish eyes from bubbles in the epoxy.  I hope to avoid those in the next table.

I'm assuming the signage are decals?  Are they adhered to the wood and then epoxied over?  Did you pour or brush on epoxy?  Did you sand and buff out the epoxy?  Or leave as poured?

Looks great.

Thanks.  @Brad_bb , the decals are applied to bare wood.  A seal coat of epoxy is brushed on and allowed to dry for 4 hours and then a flood coat is poured on and spread evenly.  I did nothing but use a torch to pop bubbles for a few hours.  It has a very high gloss by itself.

Nice table!
