D Group: Forum Members Posts: 5, Visits: 19	Hi guys. I've just poured my first river table with some nice oak. I Maybe didn't leave enough time between pours as the temperature is 13/14 degrees. It was probably too sticky still. Anyways its shrunk and I need more resin to Complete the table. It's my first time ever working with resin. If anyone has tips about pouring onto an already cured river would be greatly appreciated. Be it sanding etc. Thanks, Daniel
