I want to fix legs to a resin table which needs fixing directly into the resin approx 25mm thick.
What’s the best way to do this? Don’t want to crack it. This project has cost a lot as I’ve used 10kg of glasscast 50.
Can it be tapped as well? Or maybe just drilled and fit a threaded bush to screw some bolts into.
Any advice greatly appreciated

all of the above should work, but you'll have to take your time and be very carefull...
What I would highly recommend you is trying it on a scrap piece before or if you still have some resin left, make a little piece of cured resin you can try some things on before trying it on your table
