For sure! For easier reference (as the directions can seem a bit convoluted) you can check out my build album here:
Glow Table Build
So the top is composed entirely from pecky cypress. Down here in the Georgia it's relatively inexpensive but YMMV (I want to say I got enough wood to make two tables identical to the one pictured for around $100)
After you mill up the cypress and glued the planks together to whatever width you'd like, you want to clean out the pockets with whatever pointy tools you have handy (I used a variation of flathead screwdrivers, picks, and files) just to ensure that the resin has a smooth crevice to adhere to. I used an air compressor / blower nozzle to clean out these cracks further.
Prior mixing the ingredients for the resin you want to mask off the bottom of the table and I clamped two acrylic planks to two opposite sides to ensure no spillage from overflow.
The resin itself is a combination
1:1 Epoxy,
Glow in the dark powder, and
Teal Pigment. Originally I had opted to not get the teal pigment but found that just the glow in the dark powder mixed with the clear epoxy didn't really have a color during the day. The client I worked with wanted it to be teal so I added the pigment and the top still shone in the dark.
Once you have your mixture ready to go and your tabletop properly sealed at the bottom and clamped into the acrylic ends you can start applying the resin. I used a straightedge (just a scrap of wood) to try and spread it and even it out. Let it sit for a day or so and come back and repeat the process to ensure a flat top.
Once you've done this you'll have a pretty chaotic looking top. If you have a drum sander thank the lord that you're so lucky as you can run the tabletop through there and sand away any excess. If you don't have a drum sander something like the Rotex or even RO150 can be used though it'll be time consuming. Once it's sanded flush you basically go through your finishing process. I sanded it, shellac'd it, and finished it with several coats of General Finishes Topcoat. Wet sanded it to completion and voila.
