The cedar and epoxy board

I’m finally finished with a cedar and epoxy resin experiment that I’ve been working on for the past six weeks. I harvested the cedar from the trails behind the house and sawed it into manageable crosscuts. Then I did an epoxy pour with swirls of black onyx, emerald green, green envy, iridescent blue, and deep blue sea mica powder. I fabricated a router sled with angle iron and 1.5″ steel tubing and planed the board down to 1/4″ inch using a 2″ surfacing router bit. And then I sanded. And sanded. And sanded. And cussed. And sanded more.

This was very much an exercise in learning and patience. The latter I am really having to work on.

I don’t know what this thing is, but whatever it is, here it is.
