Amateur: Table top talks
While it’s clear that Entropy Resins®, the bio-based epoxy, is taking the surf, skate and snowboard shapers, makers and crafter markets by storm, what’s not so well known is its fascinating history. In this short film we learn about the development of ENTROPY RESINS including working with surfers to understand the need for flex and give; and how the early adoption of the epoxy by artists in California led to its use in the furniture industry. That development led to it being used for staircases, internal joinery and working with timber in an infinite number of ways.
Hamish Cook, a technical guru at Wessex Resins and Adhesives for 18 years, says: “It’s incredibly easy to use. Anyone can do it. Plus it’s completely solvent free. People don’t need to wear masks, they just need a ventilated area.” Hamish has made many videos for us, about how to use epoxy resin. These include specialist top tips and techniques. These can be found on our YouTube channel. Hamish our technical expert has previously given advice about getting rid of air bubbles in epoxy.
