    The rod is a thing of beauty Jed, awesome work. So sorry I can't join you all for the Hezza WCS Comp. Work taken me to Adelaide 😳😳. Wish I was there, I hope you good people have the best time ever! Have a beer for me! My sanity saver is I am in Shark bay for 2 weeks not long after I get back! Love the video, LMAO at you peeling crabs Jed, That is how I do it! Weird how there never seems to be a lot of meat left in the bowl. Stay safe crew, blessings for you to you both! Stay safe, have fun! 👍🍻😁

      Oh nice nice!! Do you know what Blank he used? I'm still yet to restore an old rod. I have Kelly's grandfathers beach rod which is an old Len-Butterworth which I'm keen to restore. 👍👍

    Lovely work on the rod mate. So perfect. I'm looking forward to a handy hobby when i semi retire. Summer has finally arrived in SA. Then it gets cool again. Port Augusta is around 5 hours drive from my house. So far away from me. Hahah. Dire Straits. Haven't done the images yet mate. Flat out with vintage. When heat comes, the grapes come off. I gusse i could email you the pic and you could print it yourself. Up to you mate. Thanks mate. Need get me a jetboil. Hahah😂

      Cheers Nath! Yeah it turned out lovely in the end, very nice all-rounder 👌 . No stress about pics mate at all, we'll be flat out on repairs and re-packing for NT next week then punching north up through the middle so whenever it suits ya 👍👍, Hopefully a good grape season over your way too!
      What's on the crumpets this morning? 🤔

    • @scale2tail
      @scale2tail 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      @oldmate_adventures hheheh. Promite and butter, mate. Bought ones. I'll try to make my own again soon. Need to master it. Yep. I'll do the photos after vintage. Be a month away. Maybe a bit less. Grapes are looking fantastic, mate. Big tight bunches. It's going to be a good year, i think. Thanks to the weather warming up. 👌

    • @oldmate_adventures
      @oldmate_adventures  9 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Oh nice thee ole Promite! I was a big fan on Ozimite but can't get it anymore 😔
      Yeah I did google how they are made and looks complicated, would be a epic skill to have 🙌

    • @scale2tail
      @scale2tail 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      @oldmate_adventures yes mate. It most definitely would be worth it. It's all about the temperature. Hard because i keep burning the bottom before they start to bubble and pop

    • @oldmate_adventures
      @oldmate_adventures  9 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Arrr yes the bubbles! 🙌 haha

    Glad you clarified on the jet boil thing because I love my jet boil and I love my crabs and I love my morning cup of tea but that trifecta can’t operate sustainably using the same jet boil 🤣
    Just let me know how to pronounce that bay when you figure it out - for the rest of us 😂

    • @oldmate_adventures
      @oldmate_adventures  9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Oh yeah I tried the crab cuppa a few times...it was not a good combo 😐 🙅‍♂️😆
      I don't think I did work it out in the end! I'm useless 🤦‍♂️ haha

    Lovely Ep and spots and good luck on the Hessa world titles. How do you go with the stink of that resin in your van.

    • @oldmate_adventures
      @oldmate_adventures  9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Cheers Craig mate 👍👍, rod building thread epoxy has no smell so she's all good! The 2 part for the grips kinda smells a bit like araldite but that's bout it. 👌

    • @craigtomkinson2837
      @craigtomkinson2837 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Ok sorry I was thinking it was like Fiberglass resin. Cool, @@oldmate_adventures

    • @oldmate_adventures
      @oldmate_adventures  9 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Yeah I hadn't really thought about it till you mentioned it. Haha yeah fibreglass resin smell would be not good!

    Just a heads up...locals call Bairds Bay as Beards Bay. Yeah I know, we're a wierd lot. But we also call nearby Sceales Bay, Scales Bay. Maybe we need better edjamacation 😂

    • @oldmate_adventures
      @oldmate_adventures  9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Haha yeah I stuffed it up a few times...😬 my bad mate! Lovely coastline though, awesome part of the world!

      Cheers Jeff mate 👍, I've sold a couple mate but I make most to donate to charities and for gifts. Still learning lots, only been making them for nearly 2 years.
