OK I think I am going to go for it. I have been reluctant to do the pour with stuff in it for fear of getting new postcards etc and not being able to add them, but I think I just going to go for it...and the time is now.

This is a newly built, covered outdoor bar, about 12' long and 2' deep. I have bamboo flooring laid on top of 1/2" chipboard/plywood. I'm going to add trim to the edge so the trim sticks up about 1/4" above the bar surface. This will contain the epoxy. Is this a reasonable thickness to achieve??

Before I put down the postcards, etc onto the top - I cover them in white glue? Do you do this elsewhere and just squeeze it on so it covers the top of the postcard only and let it dry, then put it on the bar? Versus lay them on where I want them on the bar and pour glue over them, let them dry, and pour the glaze on? Do I need glue on the back of the postcards too?

Can I get the postcards laminated as an alternative to the glue to prevent the epoxy from ruining them? What about Mod Podge?

I really don't want to screw this up...

Thanks is advance for any info...
