I do not know how your video popped up in my account, but as a crafter, sewer, and thrifty recycler... I watched every second! This process was so fascinating. And the results?! Just incredible. If you want to use the pants think smaller, end tables, coffee tables, maybe some modernist designs with curves and skinny legs. BRASS WAS GENIUS whether intentional or not, the brass mimics the studs in making of genes, and your brass outlets were just cherries on the dessert❣ and the leather is also a nod the the jeans lifestyle. All thats left is to get leather tags embossed with your branding to put your claim to these art pieces. You are absolutely on to something. And you can add design elements with your colored epoxy like rhinestones. ❤❤❤

The main thing is that he likes it. I love this table, but I don't have space for two or more tables at home, if I had to choose, I would choose wood. This table lacks depth, something like 3D milling at a depth of 8/10, in the shape of the same jeans, with some interesting ragged relief (so that all layers can be seen) then poured with super transparent resin. Because now the table looks like it's fiberboard laminated with a single layer of denim, it doesn't feel like it's made entirely of denim.

@schuylermontgomery3396 11 місяців тому
Awesome project! Since you asked for suggestions-as an aerospace engineer, my mind jumps to vacuum infusion. It’s a pretty common technique in aircraft manufacturing, and one of the big benefits is you can completely avoid the mess of epoxy. You would basically put the whole denim stack in a sealed bag with some “flow media” as the top layer. Then you pull vacuum on the bag on one side and allow your epoxy to flow in through the other side. Once it’s fully infused, you let it cure under vacuum. Then you can peel the bag off it and ideally you have a perfect denim layup with no mess. Hope this helps!
@jonbourgeois8390 11 місяців тому

This is very similar to fiberglass work! I think you’d have a lot of success with vacuum bags for the clamp up. That would also be a simple way to start making non-flat forms/molds to layup curved shapes. You could also get some biaxial fiberglass and work that into the layers to get thinner parts that have structural strength. I’m excited to see what you do on this new path, there’s certainly a lot of opportunities!

Its basically the same kinda material, a fiberous weave held to gether with a resin, pretty similar to carbon fiber too.

Well, i guess technically it is exactly the same as working with fiberglass. The body of the infamous Trabant car from the communistic regime German Democratic Republic was made like this table: cotton cloth soaked in resin laminated into shapes. it does not depend so much on the fiber you are using, the working technics are mostly the same. Technically you coud also cheat and laminate the denim over a lighter weight, but robust core to safe work, time and money on resin and denim and avoid emissions by wasting ressources. maybe it wouldn't feel right, but in the end noone would ever care, even, if you tell them.

100%. Used to build fiber glass/carbon fiber boats. Vacuum infusion would be the way to go. It’s a bit of a finicky process, but probably worth the setup.

We talked quite a bit about making tables out of regular fabric in the shop, considering we had all the gear to do it.

We used to vacuum infuse carbon fiber sheet on a sliding glass door - Apply mold release to the door, lay down your fabric (worked up to 1”+ thick), peel ply, resin/vacuum lines, vacuum bag.

Levi. Not only was this an amazing project, it was an incredible demonstration of selflessness, commitment, and compassion. I never expected to have tears watching a "How I made..." UKposts Video. I am blown away by your craftsmanship, dedication to the project, and your generosity which was only exceeded by Sheeren's generosity. You Guys are the Best!

I love charity work myself, but would it have not been more generous for him to just use a slab of oak for the core, since it would never be seen again after a layer of denim went over it, and then he could have donated that $2000 dollars or so worth of epoxy and denim to like 100 other craftsmen to make cool projects with? Imagine how depleted our natural resources would be if everyone were as wasteful as this when it came to hobby crafts. Geesh wow, still smh in agony over this. What's next, making an engine that uses solid gold pistons to be put inside a Honda Civic?? Oh nvm, I'm afraid if he reads that suggestion he may actually try to do it🤦♂
@SyenPie 5 місяців тому
@@Rick-the-Swift I was also wondering why he bought sooo much denim that essentially could’ve been literally any material since it would never be seen haha. Then again, it’s precisely because the entire table is literally denim that the project seems even more epic

Very cool looking project and especially the result. As for squeezing the liquid epoxy - in my country we have an old school device for squeezing laundry. It's two long tubes/drums with a handle. Take a look at a "hand Clothes Wringer" may be it'll give an idea.

Cam, I make denim micarta for custom knife handles and use wax paper between the denim and the mold. Works well as a release agent, plus it sands off easy. Enjoyed the video, my favorite denim is "used" as it all goes to the micarta pile. Keep making.

@lunalaw3858 11 місяців тому
fun fact- The material you made is called micarta. It was originally developed as a lightweight electrical insulator, however it is most often seen on knife handles. it is especially popular on camping and EDC knives due to it's waterproof properties and the fact that it'll develop a patina as it ages.

This is awesome! I would like to suggest you look at a Japanese process called "Mokume Gane" Basically you would layer your denim like you did here, but on the bottom use various sized wads of denim to create hills and valleys in the top design. It comes out looking like a topographical map.
