FAQ's
How much mica powder do I add to the mixture?
Start with a small amount and gradually add more, until you achieve the opacity desired. It's not recommended that you use more than 3 grams of mica powder to each gallon of epoxy.
How much Deep Pour do I use?
Matt used 2.5 Gallons of deep pour for this project. The cookies shown are approximately 18" in diameter. If your side tables are a different size, you can use our FREE calculator to calculate exactly how much deep pour epoxy you will need.
What type of legs did Matt use?
16" Black Mid-Century Modern legs from the brand Orgerphy
What size are the tables?
Approximately 18" in diameter and 18" tall with the legs attached
Where do I get the wood?
Matt got his cookies for this project the old fashioned way...by making them himself! We recommend checking your local Facebook Marketplace for the best deals on pre-cut cookies. If you can't find any good local options, some of our favorite online wood suppliers are The Lumber Shack and Woodworkers Source.
Should I use live ammunition or casings?
We recommend using casings for this project instead of live ammunition

Not happy with one of the deep pour containers
When mixing for a deep pour project as I was preparing to mix there were clumps of the material that would not completely dissolve before adding the hardener so I had to strain and hopefully it will harden properly. It’s only been 2 days so far but the top appears to be fine 🤞

Great Stuff
I've been using Upstart Epoxy for quite some time now. I've been working with resin for about three years, and I have to say, I've always been really happy with the products I've purchased from Upstart Epoxy. They always work just as they should when used correctly. Honestly, I would definitely purchase from them again in the future. Such great stuff! did a review on the Table top epoxy before had kind of copy and paste

“Black River Table”
The Deep Pour epoxy is so easy to work with and the outcome turned out amazing! I used 3 gallons of the Deep Pour to create the Black River and then used a gallon of the 1:1 to give the table a flood coat which really brought out the colors of this Spalted Maple. I love working with the Upstart product!
