Next I'm using some scrap wood and carving out some gaps to test out some artwork on the inside (paint & epoxy). Running tests on this scrap piece of wood so I get enough experience to do the table top to a good standard. (Have not done this before)
1) Marked off the wood in the middle vertically and horizontally. Remarked it from the middle but with a 1cm gap.
2) Clamped wood down and put a cloth under the clamps to avoid damaging the wood. Used a small fine tooth saw to cut a few mm deep (acts as a guide rail for the next part). Next I used a bigger saw (longer and bigger teeth) and went full force to cut through the wood. Only want to go halfway deep here. (used a hand saw)
3) Saw someone on YouTube use saw dust to fill in small cracks in the wood. Could be useful later if I need to do that, so I put some clean saw dust in a bag.
4) Luckily found a chisel the right size to remove the middle bit of wood. I guess most chisels come around 1cm wide. Used a hammer and chisel to slowly knock the middle bit of wood out. Yup, I smacked my hand with the hammer a few times by accident. 😅
Still need to sand down the middle bit, clean it, test out the paint and epoxy. Then cut the other way across using the method above and do more paint and epoxy testing. Lots of testing to do!
Curious to see what this scrap piece of wood will look like after I am done with it.
