November 24, 20196 yr comment_209943 I'm jumping back into woodworking specifically to learn more about resin tables and similar projects. I'm searched all the woodworking forums that have come up on google but I haven't seen any forums specifically dedicated to resin topics. Is there something like this around, maybe sponsored by one of the resin suppliers that I haven't stumbled upon yet? I'd hate to keep bothering general woodworking forums with resin questions. Also, earlier in my research I found a supplier that had a page of many of the tools you need when working with resin tables and one of those was a 3" 4 blade router bit that planed a surface. For the life of me I can't find that supplier's page again. Does this sound familiar to anyone? It's not Black Forest or Stone Coat Countertop. If not, would anyone have a good suggestion for a similar router bit? The one listed on that particular supplier's page was about $100. Report

November 24, 20196 yr comment_209949 Welcome Brad. I've not found a forum dedicated to resin use. YouTube is my go to for info. The guys at Stone Coat have been really helpful, too. They do a lot of router planing/surfacing. I'm sure they can recommend a good bit to use. I use a Magnate 2709 in a 3 1/4 hp router. It's a 3" bit. It does a good job on mesquite. I've never used a fully resin coated surface but, it works well on smaller (3"-6"+ ) filled voids. A good bit of sanding is necessary after using any planer bit, though. Report
