Cable Drum Bottle Top Table in Epoxy Resin

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.
