    Tonight I'm going to apply tape on the back side (and/or some hot glue) then I'm going to apply hot glue and / or bluetac around the edge of the cracks as a wall, then resin.

    Do I need to worry about the hot glue leaving a mark?

    No
    you will plane, scrape, sand any marks out when you finish the slab.

    Sorry about reopening such an old thread.
    Jayendra that table is amazing but the question I would love to have an answer for is the timber cypress pine, Callitris columellaris?
    if it is cypress pine I would be very interest in how the glue joints have survived time.
    Did you use some sort of dowel/biscuit support on the joints and what glue did you use?
    cheers Peter

    I'm sure others could answer this as I purchased the local board made ready.

    My cousin also does similar stuff with Titebond III Titebond III Ultimate – Titebond Glues and Adhesives: Woodbond Adhesives Pty Ltd
