![]() That was an instant “you’re a dummy” moment as I started to pour. ![]() I started the first pour without using caulking as an epoxy damn to focus the location of the pour. We all use our smartphones for everything and I really don’t like the idea of sticky epoxy fingers touching my cell phone. The bottles of High Performance say that you need to mix it for at least two minutes so I recommend picking up a cheap kitchen timer to dedicate to this task. I’m also tinting it black with some epoxy dye that a friend left in my shop a couple of years ago. The epoxy I’m using is Total Boat High Performance with medium hardener. This will allow me to flood the slab with epoxy and hopefully stop any extra from spilling out. So rather than a melamine form, I decided to use some wax paper to basically gift wrap the slab. I’m only using epoxy to fill the bark inclusion and the cracks and I won’t be, I guess, suspending the table in epoxy around the perimeter. I figured it would be easier to pour from the bottom side first as the larger bark inclusion in the center would be easier to fill that way. ![]() I put a layer of tape over the major areas first and then a layer of tape over the entire top side. It was much cheaper and I already had a lot on hand. House wrap tape is commonly used in epoxy projects but I went with regular clear packing tape instead. Apart from the obvious voids and cracks that you can easily see, it was full of small cracks and bug holes here and there. The first step was to examine the slab and determine a game plan. We do not recommend flat mounting Container Slides.This is a pecan slab I got from a friend of mine Ted Alexander, in Oklahoma in 2017, and in this article and video, I’m going to show you how I turned it into a beautiful table with a somewhat hidden drawer. Refer to our Professional Range of solid section slides for this type of mounting. This Standard simulates various types of vibration and shaking during transportation on loads up to 150kg (330Ibs).ĭo not use Container Slides for access steps or any application where the loading is dynamic or not evenly displaced along the beams. With upgraded locking mechanism and material, we are pleased to announce the CONRED Fully Locking Slides are now certified to EN 6 Standard (Environmental testing - Ground vehicle installations: Vibration, random, and guidance). Reduce the stated load capacity by 30% if fitting to a moving vehicle, due to shock & vibration. These are highly recommended for pick-up and utility truck drawers which need to be locked in the stowed and fully extended positions via a front activated latch. NOW AVAILABLE IN GRADE 304 STAINLESS STEEL - CONBLX Available in standard and fully locking versions, they are interchangeable. ![]() The bearings are hardened steel with chrome plate. Bright zinc plated with positive stops in the closed and fully extended positions. Full details of the fixing patterns and lengths and loads are set out on the datasheet. This is a multi-purpose rolled steel, heavy duty, slide, particularly suited to deep drawers in vehicles which require front access locking. Heavy Duty (250kg) Fully Locking Container Sides Container Slides are pre-drilled with a flexible fixing pattern enabling them to be ready-to-fit in most standard applications. ![]()
