River Cast Timber Workshop

Join us in this 4 hour epoxy workshop were we go through everything from wood choice, wood prep, moulds, pouring and achieving a beautiful gloss finish. Resin is so much fun to work with, can make for a great hobby and can lead to all sorts of interesting projects. Things can also go horribly wrong if you don't have the right information and we know from expereince that using quality products makes a big difference. In this workshop you'll not only learn about epoxies, how they work and best practices we'll also go through wood choices, prep, moulds as well as sanding and polishing. 

Together we will demonstrate the pouring of a river table & then you'll  get to create your very own serving board or wall art roughly 400mm x 320mm with the colour and style of your choice. As this particular epoxy resin takes 3-4 days to fully cure, it will see you finish your boards at home, only requiring a sander and some oil for finishing. Every step will be demonstrated and you will have hands on experience on already cured pieces so you know EXACTLY what to do when you get your cured piece home. If this isn't possible for you at home, then I am happy for you to do this at the studio with my guidance.
