Helpful epi
This book is helpful if you wanna learn how to make epoxy tables the way the author does. I will say that if you look up YouTube videos, it kind of differs on methods but ultimately if you read the book it gives you good hints that arenโt offered online.

A great picture book but NOT FOR BEGINNERS
The Guide part was broken and difficult to follow. There are gaps in the process and some need more clarification. Plan on visiting Youtube for more guidance, but the photos are awesome and make the purchase worthwhile.

Pics and instructions
Half the book is pictures of finished product but it has lots of good information on how to build 3 different interesting tables.

Waste of money
There is nothing of use in this book for any skill level. A Google search "how to make a resin table" would provide better and more detailed information. Most of the book is photos of other people's work and then 10% of a very and I stress very basic step by step process that skips essential details in working with timber and resin. Save your money and google it. Sanding and finishing resin and timber should at least be a chapter on its on, not just a small paragraph.

Good Book But Could Be Better
I would say the first half of the book (65 pages) is simply quality photo's of River Tables made by various people. This is great to give you inspiration for your own tables. The second half is on construction but its not to the level of detail I was hoping for, which is a pity. That said between the book and the many YouTube videos on making River Tables its probably all you need to make great tables.
