    White metallic powder was mixed into the epoxy to make it slightly opaque and diffuse any lighting. Plus, I think it gives the epoxy a really cool texture and look. Especially when light passes through it.
    The table top will now have be planed or routed back down to raw wood surface and sanded, and edges cut, routed, sanded. I don't want the shinny epoxy surface on the wood. It will be oiled or sprayed with a matte polyurethane. Epoxy will then be polished back to a shine at the rivers.
    I'm planning to light the back edges of the desk, and the rivers from underneath, with some form of programmable RGB light strips that will sync to the colors on my computer monitors. Right now I am doing research into what lighting to use. One of the products I am thinking about using is Phillips Hue LEDs along with the Hue Bridge for full control. However, the Phillips solution is pretty expensive. I've also thought about using ASUS Aura Sync products.
    Anybody have any recommendations for programmable LED lighting?
