DIY Epoxy Resin Sign with LEDs

I've been watching a lot of your old videos and the difference with this one is striking. Not just the cinematography and sound which is obviously much improved, but at first you were so formal and tentative and trying to be "professional" and by this time you were just letting your personality come out and these videos just overflow with energy and fun. It's been fun watching the evolution.

Personally, I would use LED tape around the inner perimeter. Everything else is fantastic.

Sign came out nice and good recovery after that little mishap with the resin! Your shop continues to come along nicely.

The on air panel needs to be edge lit to stop it looking like a blob of light in the center.

I can picture the standing on top of the roof scene now...great movie!  Even greater build video, John.  Really enjoyed all the problem solving in this build!

Loved the video I like that you show your mishaps and how you fix them in stead of editing them out keep the videos coming!!!!

If you still have the molds you used, I would suggest remaking the resin back plate and tinting it a MUCH more opaque white, milling out the ON AIR letters and filling them in with a transparent red so when the light is on, it only shows through the red letters rather than the white background...The translucent white makes the sign hard to read...

Looks good. I'm sure like with every project there are things you would have changed. But for a whim project looks really nice!

Thanks for a RAD video. I'm a designer who's studying up before my first resin pour... Very fun to watch you.

or you could cnc the letters into a piece of wood, pour the resin and them plane off the back of the sign so the epoxy letter let light through. :)

Looks great! I wish we had a CNC machine haha! Love the work :)

This is something every content creator needs. Thanks John! Very Cool and Fun Video to watch and learn from!

awesome idea, I bet that shop is becoming a great place to spend all your time.

You're my Hero John! Ron Swanson! American Flag! GUNS! and some serious woodworking Talent

I see a bunch of folks have gotten the movie correct, a great film indeed. Pretty slick idea, and it serves a purpose.

Hey dude, if your resin is super cold it's good to give the bottles a warm bath for 5 minutes, it makes it much easier to measure and mix. Also using a drill to mix it is the reason your "clear" sheet was so frosty, there are loads of microbubbles in it. It's best to set a timer for 5 minutes and mix by hand. If you don't have a timer just mix it for as long as you think it could possibly take to mix the ingredients, scrape the sides, then mix until you want to gouge out your eyes with a grapefruit spoon. McDonald's drink stirrers are excellent for small batches.

Hey great video and great sense of humor! Thanks for making it.

Looks good bro! You could also use aluminum tape like the tape for HVAC relfex light well

Great work John!

You sir just got me to subscribe for your outstanding vocals and movie knowledge lol 👍🏼
