Cable Drum Bottle Top Table in Epoxy Resin

Описание: I made a couple of bottle top tables using some old cable drums I salvaged. This video takes you through the step by step guide of how I made them.
1. Preparing the Table (00:05)
Sand it down
Fix underlay board
Bottle top dry run
Straighten the bottle tops
2. Fixing the Bottle Tops (00:51)
Mix Adhesive Ratio 5:1
Apply Tile Adhesive
Fix Bottle Tops
*Allow to dry for at least 24hrs
3. Grouting (03:19)
Mix Grout Ratio 3:1
Apply the Grout
*Allow to dry for at least 24hrs
4. Applying the Resin (05:07)
Ensure the table is level
Mix the resin thoroughly as per the manufacturers reccomendation
Apply the Resin evenly
Use a blowtorch to eradicate any bubbles in the resin
*Allow to dry for at least 24hrs
5. Finishing Touches (10:08)
Sand the base again if required
Apply varnish (I used 3 coats of Yacht Varnish)

Wood Effect Trim: The wood effect trim is a UPVC Rosewood which I found to be easily shaped around the edging.
This was the most problematic to fix which isn't covered in this video.
After many failed attempts I settled on having to use 2 screws to secure it, and on the second table found it easier if this was fitted before applying the resin.

Here is a list of materials:
