Si "this is why I don't have kids!" after mini-mudlarker starts to cry after his foot gets wet after sinking too far😂

@Clarytee217 Год назад

I get it 😄 Kids are great, as long as I can pass them back to their parents. Mad respect to all parents out there!

@darlenela5 Год назад

😂 Felt that in my bones. Same Si, same!

@wandapease-gi8yo Год назад

Really glad my parents didn’t feel that way or we would not have gone on vacations!

@dougzirkle5951 Год назад

And this is why I don’t have a cat. It’s next to impossible to stop them from killing things. The jug was beautiful! I loved how the new, clearer sections gave it such a dimensional view looking towards the interior. Sci is so good at this.

@cathybenson5119 Год назад

Nice job on the bottle. 👍 very clever.

@anitamaney1864 Год назад

Awww we miss Steve and his flowing locks (hope his hip is getting better) but that was a real sweet spot in Bottle Creek. Get back there soon! I'm dying to know what else you can find. Get Jesse some mini Mudders so he doesn't sink! 😂 Thanks for the great vid! ❤

Cheers Anita! 😊👍🏻👣🧡

@peterkordziel7047 Год назад

As a long time viewer of your channel, I have to say this is probably going to be one of your best episodes. I am an artist and historian myself, and I find it to be great to make something whole again, especially when others consider it impossible. Thanks for all the hard work.

@cksiredower8965 Год назад

@kathieprater2431 Год назад

The onion bottle turned out great, Simon! I love all of the colors in it! Great work!

@Sifinds Год назад

Cheers Kathie! Worth a punt trying it👍🏻🐾🧡

@EvilUnderTone Год назад

I'm glad enthusiasts like yourself can still find these nice hot spots of bottles. Back in the 1970s my father who was a Met Police officer use to take us clay pipe hunting on the Thames under Southwark bridge. We also use to get dragged to his motorbike grass track meetings where there was a old Victorian bottle dump on some old Ministry land. You could just pick all the pipes and bottles up without digging back then. I had an amazing poison bottle collection which I unfortunately gave away a few years ago... and the pipes too. I remember some very early pipe bowls but not many fancy ones. Harps mostly. Anyway be lucky and loved the bottle. Resin isn't the easiest to work with aye!

@Sifinds Год назад

Sounds like you had a great childhood! Thanks for joining me on my mudventures. If you ever want to let me know the bottle dump location, please email me sifinds@outlook.com Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡

@kevinhavens8289 Год назад

I’m telling ya them old bottle necks make amazing guitar slides maybe not so much the onion bottle neck but some of those other bottle necks would work great

@Sifinds Год назад

Yep, done that before. Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡

@TaraFinlay Год назад

I absolutely love how that turned out. In some ways, aesthetically it is more pleasing than a whole onion bottle. You can color resin with alcohol inks like Copic marker refills. But I like how the clear resin contrasts with the bottle color. This is my favorite upcycle yet.

@Sifinds Год назад

Thanks so much Tara, I debated using dyes, but the job was complicated enough haha. Much love 👍🏻🐾🧡

@barbaraking6980 Год назад

Hi Si, the armless and legless doll you found looks like a Kewpie doll. based on a cartoon strip character by Rosie O'Neill, I think the ceramic dolls were made from around 1912 - the 1920's then they were made in celluloid as well .Wow, some lovely finds. You're going to have to go back there ! The reconstruction of the onion/mallet bottle is awesome, great job 🙂 See you on the next hunt

@Sifinds Год назад

@kevinhavens8289 Год назад

I wonder if using a balloon would have been easier to do the up cycle on that onion bottle then wrap in papier-mâché pop balloon and then fill in the mold or at least it sounds good in my head of ideas lol 😂 😂😂

@Sifinds Год назад

I thought balloon too, but it would suck inwards

Lots of luck in the muck on this outing. The onion bottle upcycle came out great, very creative and beautifully done. Always a pleasure to watch you and your friends on each adventure. I will keep my fingers crossed for you to find a complete mallet or onion bottle. TBH I had to try really hard not to laugh when Jesse freaked out about sinking, typical little kid. Awaiting your next video. Thanks for sharing!

Wow, I can’t believe you got such a nice shape with cellophane tape! I would have had it in my driveway and run over it in the car long before I ever got such a nicely shaped bottle. Great job!

@arvettadelashmit9337 Год назад

You could have tried using metal wire screening to form a shape a little bigger than needed (then tape over the screening overlapping many times). I would have kept the top in the clamp during most of the process , if I could. After the poring process was complete (and fully dry), use sandpaper to shape while removing the wire, then a buffing wheel (with white polishing compounds) to polish it to a shine that allows a view of the inside.

@paulkinzer7661 Год назад

I was worried when you started the bottle/resin project: the tape looked iffy to me. But the way you took it a bit at a time, and 'making it up as you go' was so successful, as that kind of thing so often is, I find. Well done!
