River table has a design that no other table has. Thanks to the solid look and the epoxy resin used to make the art table, this piece of furniture will become a fashionable decoration that will be the center of attention. Above all, which is just as important as the preparation of the painting, it is good to organize every step of the work. Read more.
Precious wood
Choose a good quality wood, such as maple, poplar or hazel. Of course, it must be completely dry and protected from rot. The choice of material and the quality of the wood will determine the final appearance of your river table. For maximum appeal, it should have a nice grain, original knots and as natural a raw color as possible. Place the piece of wood of your choice in the frame.
Epoxy
They should also be of high quality. Two-component resins are preferred. These are resins composed of two components, often referred to as A and B. These two components must be mixed according to the supplier's recommendations and dosage in order for the resin to "heat up" and eventually cure and bind the two pieces of wood together, forming a liquid mass. Once the two components are mixed, all that remains is to select the color.
After applying the resin, run a fan over the entire surface to remove small bubbles and expel air. If casting is done in several stages, it is recommended to repeat this operation each time. Removing air bubbles will make the resin clearer. A resin-based final varnish is also a good idea.
Colors and inlays
You can add a splash of color to your river table. Resin combines well with pigments, pearls and any other fine inserts. Pictures, shells, artificial plants: the choice is wide. It is important to choose paints and pigments that are compatible with epoxy resin; these paints can be translucent or opaque, liquid or powder, also known as mica.
The right tools
To make a river table, you need some handy and necessary tools:
- flashlight
- a large enough bucket for mixing the resin
- a very accurate gauge
- a pot or electric mixer
- drill
- nails
- brush
The heated chamber is also very useful for drying and thus faster polymerization of the resin from the river table.
