Great for shop or indoor use.Jess Crow’s epoxy work is a stunning mix of her artistic capabilities, woodworking skills, and her incredibly creative use of epoxy. She’s mastered a water-simulating technique that creates the look of ocean waves splashing on top of her pieces.
Jess’s innovative ocean wave resin technique is currently in the resin art spotlight, and she is continuously pioneering new processes involving epoxy and functional art.
“I often get asked “How do you do that?” and told “I’m not at your level, and won’t ever be.” Ah, my friends…that is not correct. I am learning every single day. I draw. I chip away at wood with crazy ideas. I save every single scrap and utilize it – feel it, cut it up, burn it, and mostly ‘waste it’. Yes, WASTE. I am not afraid to have a project not work out, because honestly it never doesn’t work out: I learn from every single one and therefore nothing is wasted.”
As a maker extraordinaire, Jess excels at thinking outside the box (what box?) and enjoys bringing her ideas to the forefront of the woodworking and art communities, with a strong emphasis on sharing and teaching.
Jess’s work is a testament to the performance and ease of use of our TotalBoat epoxy line. Her work makes our epoxy even better and we are so excited to partner with her to create MakerPoxy Crystal Clear Artist’s Resin by Jess Crow.

Can I place hot items on the cured surface?
Yes, but do not place items hotter than 110°F on the cured surface, or it will become distorted and discolored. This is standard practice for nearly all epoxies cured at room temperature. -
Can I thin MakerPoxy?
No, thinning epoxy changes the mix ratio and will result in improper cure. -

Yes, MakerPoxy Art Resin BPA-free formula is a safer alternative for finished projects that may come into contact with food. -
What is the coverage of MakerPoxy?
The coverage for a one-gallon kit of MakerPoxy is roughly 12 sq. ft. at ⅛”, and 6 sq. ft. at ¼.″ -
How long will it take to cure?
