For the bottom, use cork matting. Much nicer finish, waterproof, easier to cut and bond to the label

This is really cool looking. I have been looking for vinyl projects because I inherited hundreds (literally) of vinyl records and 80% of them are undesirable (1001 Strings, anyone?). We want to create a fun bar/rec/music room in the basement and these will make a great addition!! Thanks for posting the fails too, now we know what to expect!

I found that using a lower speed and lighter pressure with the hole saw works the best even if it takes longer. Coming in at a slight angle with the hole saw like the video says helps too. If you don't have a lot of these to do, you can also use a hand file to get rid of the burs and remaining pieces from the edges.

Got any recommendations for a better spray than modge podge? As I’m sure you’ve discovered even after multiple layers of modge podge the coaster sticks to a hot mug. Needs some kind of clear heat resistant spray.

Maybe try a concrete bit? I think the saw would have less bite. Or just run the saw the opposite direction

How does your sealant perform with a hot mug/glass? Can you recommend a heat resistant sealant?

I've used ModPodge for these (not the spray kind) and it doesn't react well to a hot mug. Would love a good heat resistant sealant.

The coasters look great! Is there a reason why you cut a hole in the felt below the spindle hole? I’d think adding the hole would allow water/condensation to get through and reach the table?
@ScotHacker

Mostly because if you can't see through the hole, it doesn't look a hole. And because you don't want crumbs and dust getting caught in the little indentation that would create.

Good video, when cutting the label out with the hole saw, would it be better to use a slower speed and a lighter touch to avoid damaging it? Thank you! 👍👍👍

That's a good question. It's been a while since I made these, but I remember finding that the key was to make contact at a slight angle to avoid breakage. If you do experiments, let us know what you find!

That's why it's so important to spray on the sealant - to protect the labels! I only put a couple of coats on in this video - in retrospect, should have done more, as it eventually wore off and some of the labels got damaged.
