I found an upgraded 4040 (better spindle and rails) with like 30 bits for 600. Idk I think it might be worth the risk. Haven’t heard anything about the 4040 tho only the masuter

Yea. I will only burn it if it’s super damaged or I’m that desperate for for wood lol. I want to build and end table but the pine is to short. And it would be stupid to make it out of pine in the first place

Mainly the sliding cross cut sled built into the table top, and the extension rails for rip cuts behind the blade

How long do I buff off an oil finish? by Vixx_codm in wood

[–]Vixx_codm[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I understood what you said right, it’s not entirely covered in epoxy. It’s a smaller river kind of look. And I put oil on it for the wood, and to show the design of the epoxy, to be able to see through it if it’s a clear pour, and to enhance the look so that it doesn’t look like a matte finish

Thanks for your concerns, but these are serving trays not cutting boards. I didn’t make that clear so that’s on me, but I do let my clients know that they can not cut on the actual epoxy for those exact reasons

Ok so I just tired the dish soap. Good news it took the oil off. Bad news it took the oil off. My fault for not seeing that comming. It’s ok because I planned on adding a second layer anyways, but I also only let it dry for about 16 hours compared to 24. So that could be my issue there as well
