OHA RESIN
A walnut dining table with a sea-green resin river running down its centre, in a sunlit room with pale oak floors.

Walnut and epoxy. Sea-green pour, tinted to order.

Light, poured into wood.

Resin river tables, carved wall panels and cut-to-size joinery, made to order in a one-man workshop.

Tables with a river in them

Two live-edge slabs set apart, then joined by a pour. The resin is tinted to suit the room in sea green, rose or amber, or left clear, and petals, beads and gold flake settle where they stop falling. The top is sanded up through the grits until the resin reads as glass.

Resin river tables
Walnut, oak or beech with epoxy. 60 to 240 cm, made to order.
Three carved walnut leaf panels on a pale wall above an oak console, their recesses filled with sage and blush resin.

Shapes cut out of one board

The outline is drawn first, then the router follows it in a single pass so the edge stays crisp. Recesses are cut to depth in the same setup and filled flush with tinted resin or a paler wood.

Carved wall panels
Walnut and maple, 6 mm or 12 mm. Matte or satin, hung on hidden fixings.
A curved walnut shelf, a round oak disc and a maple panel with routed pockets, laid out on a pale bench.

Cut to the millimetre you need

Shelves, tops, covers, bases and blanks for signage. Send measurements or a drawing and the parts arrive squared, edge-profiled and drilled, ready to put straight in.

Cut-to-size work
Straight and curved cuts, edge profiling, drilling and pocketing. One-off or batch.

Pieces already made

Each of these exists. The sizes are what was built, and any shape can be cut again to suit your wall or your room.

How long a piece takes

About twelve days, and most of that is the resin hardening on its own. Nothing about that part can be hurried, so a piece is quoted with a date rather than a rush option.

  1. Day 1half a day

    Choosing the board

    Boards are picked for grain and for how flat they sit, then cut, planed and left until they are dry enough to pour onto.

  2. Day 2one day

    Drawing and routing

    The shape goes onto the board and the router follows it in one pass. Recesses that will hold resin are cut to depth in the same setup.

  3. Day 3a few hours

    The pour

    The void is dammed and sealed, then filled in layers so the epoxy does not overheat. Petals and beads are placed while the layer is still soft enough to hold them.

  4. Days 4 to 10seven days

    Curing

    The resin hardens on its own schedule. A deep pour needs a full week in a warm, still room before anyone can touch it.

  5. Day 11one day

    Sanding and finish

    Flattened, then sanded up through the grits until the resin is clear again. Oil or matte lacquer on the wood, and it is wrapped for delivery.
