I feel the same way about woodwork, sure there's gimmicky creators but the reality of the hobby is nobody is getting rich or famous, selling pieces will barely cover material costs and having the fanciest gear won't necessarily give you a better finished piece.

- JKCalhoun 5y ago> Although epoxy river tables make me cringe everytime I see one... More-so even than walnut-stained construction-grade plywood gaming tables? ;-) Hey, I shouldn't poke fun, you got to start somewhere.
- smoyer 5y agoI hope you're kidding! ... if you're buying plywood spend the extra buck or two to at least get one finished size. Furniture-grade veneered plywood really isn't that outrageously priced and for a pro-am like me, it's dimensionally stable for bigger pieces and I can cut out parts that don't fit in my thicknesser and/or finish planer.
- smoyer 5y agoI prefer epoxy fastened wooden boats (whether on a river or not). Amateurs out there who are following these "tutorials" beware ... you can become allergic to epoxy with repeated exposure so wear your PPE.
