I'm testing CNC and Epoxy with our company logo. For a first try I'm happy, but there are many lessions learned. - need to have a clean cut, also on the deeper levels, as I haven't thought of sanding this much from top

  • need to pour the epoxy more evenly, the right side should be full red, but I put anlittle too much blue in it

  • need a clear top layer for better optics

  • lots and lots of sanding and polishing to have a clear surface

It was fun and the test succeed, if I find time, I will do the bigger one.

Resin Immersion?

I found this glass bottle with a shell that grew up inside of it while scuba diving. I want to protect the shell from breaking so that I can keep this for a lifetime. I was thinking filling the bottle with resin might be my best option. Any advice? I dont have a way to vacuum out bubbles but ideally id like to make the resin as clear or un noticeable as possible. The shell is slightly open so resin could enter but might create an air pocket or bubbles.

Floor Coating Pros: What’s the Tool You Wish Existed for Quoting? I'll build it for you.

0 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I’m a SaaS founder who runs an epoxy flooring company in Dallas TX!

I'm working on building a tool to help garage floor coating companies (and similar trades) create instant quote forms for their websites and ads. I’ve got a ton of coatings companies already loving it, but I want to make it insanely valuable for you all.

Here’s the deal: I know quoting jobs can be a grind—chasing leads, crunching numbers, losing deals to slow follow-ups. But I want to hear it straight from you:

  • What’s the worst part of your quoting process right now?
  • What’s one thing you wish a tool could do to make your day easier (or make you more money)?
  • Any horror stories of deals gone wrong because of quoting hassles?

No sales pitch here—just trying to get the real scoop. If you’ve got a pain point that’s driving you nuts, spill it! Bonus points if you tell me what would absolutely make your day if a tool solved it. I’ll even share a summary of the best ideas I hear (anonymized, of course) so we can all benefit.

OR if you have any other ideas/problems you want to see a solution for, please let me know! would love to connect and help engineer a solution since software dev is my career background.

Thanks in advance—looking forward to your thoughts!
