Nice one Oiyshes! Had to laugh at the mask muffled 'Hi quality" remarks at the 2 minute mark😂(at least thats what it sounds like to me). Making good progress ,....must be magic😉.Bartek must have been Soooo happy when that sanding was over...itch free evenings...bliss. Can't wait for the splash guys!🖖🏻⛵
Thank you Mike! ☺️ You are absolutely correct 'Hi quality' indeed 😂 Itch free evenings definitely are a bliss and we shall try not to take them for granted anymore 😂 Will try not to keep you waiting long for that splash 😉 Live long and may the force be with you 😀🖖🏻⛵
The curved up end bits are called "manu" which means "bird" in Maori/Polynesian. In some traditions they have birds carved on them or a figurative bird shape but just a simple one like this is still called a manu.
is your reusable brush a silicone basting brush? like for cooking? that's a great idea I'm gonna get one of those and try it! how does polyester stick to silicone? I find epoxy sticks to it quite well, but I think it would be easy to clean off with methanol (my current solvent of choice as it's both less toxic and cheaper than acetone, and still able to thin epoxy)
It's exactly that you can usually find them in cooking/baking section 😊 We used it both with polyester and epoxy no problem 😊 We actually let it cure before we clean it you can then just detach the resin it's very satisfying 😀 The only downside we found for now is it doesn't hold as much resin as a regular brush and tends to be drippy but otherwise we are quite happy with it. Thanks for the tip with methanol we will try that as aceton is not only more expensive but actually sometimes hard to find here in Panama 😀

Thank you so much! Maybe that's why birds like to sit in this spot so much 😀
@@svoiysh hahaha yeah birds do like to sit there! Also, in new zealand at least, "do a manu" means to leap off something into the water!
👍!!!
Thank you! ☺️
