During Maker Faire 2015 we built a new table for Noisebridge, called NoiseSquare.
This will be the documentation.
Woodwork
Most of the Table is 3/4" Red Oak finish plywood. Nearly all the external joinery is done with #20 biscuits and Titebond 3 wood glue. The internal structure is 3/4" CDX plywood with Kreg pocket screws and wood glue.
The stain is "American Walnut" from Minwax applied with t-shirt scraps and everything but the table top is Varathane Interior polyurethane applied with a foam brush in 3 coats.
The table top surface is finished with a flood coat of Ultra-Glo epoxy resin from Tap plastics. Below the table top is another layer of plywood which holds the LEDs. The Noisebridge logo was hand routed into both of these layers with a top bearing router bit.

Resin
The Noisebridge Logo in the table top surface is filled with 3/4" of EasyCast epoxy resin with a pearlesent pigment added during the mixing. This was poured in four batches.
During the pour, the table top and internal logo pieces were placed on top of a mylar sheet that had been coated with spray adhesive. This was placed on a pre drilled wood surface and screws were driven up into the table top through the Mylar to hold the parts in place during the resin cure.
Once the resin for the logo had fully cured ~72 hours. A top coat of Ultra-Glo resin was poured over the entire table top to create one smooth layer.
