Si "this is why I don't have kids!" after mini-mudlarker starts to cry after his foot gets wet after sinking too far😂
I get it 😄 Kids are great, as long as I can pass them back to their parents.
Mad respect to all parents out there!
😂 Felt that in my bones. Same Si, same!
Really glad my parents didn’t feel that way or we would not have gone on vacations!
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.
Nice job on the bottle. 👍 very clever.
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! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
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.
Yes I agree , well put together video si 😊
The onion bottle turned out great, Simon! I love all of the colors in it! Great work!
Cheers Kathie! Worth a punt trying it👍🏻🐾🧡
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!
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! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
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
Yep, done that before. Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
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.
Thanks so much Tara, I debated using dyes, but the job was complicated enough haha. Much love 👍🏻🐾🧡
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
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Great upcycle on the onion bowl! I love your mudventures, always a treat!
Cheers Mudlover! 👍🏻🐾🧡
I love your up cycling projects because they really express artistic creativity ! Thank you
Thanks so much Whitney 👍🏻🐾🧡
What a fantastic creek, the amount of treasures you found, but best of all the onion bottle you upcycled was so cleverly done, look forward to the next video
Thanks so much Kim!👍🏻🐾🧡
Great job on your onion bottle! Nice piece of history to display.
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Amazing Si, love Nellie and Daisy, and love a crafty guy. ❤🇨🇦😎
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
That onion bottle!
A surreal piece of Dali-esque art!
I love it, so well done 👍
hello from Denmark 🌸
Cheers Z!, Dali is my fav artist
YAY! Great score. I love the upcycled onion bottle!
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Great result on the onion bottle upcycle Si 👍I love your ingenuity and creativity.
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
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 😂 😂😂
I thought balloon too, but it would suck inwards
Put them in your shirt when your hands are full! Looking forward to watching you going back there.
haha! Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Aw man, you worked in a Bottom reference? You are my damned hero.
Nobody got lost, nobody got hurt and nobody had mechanical problems.....it was a good day all around and there were Treasures to be found. Good going you guys.
It’s always fun when kids are along. Insert eye roll.
That bottle is awesome !!! What a cool way to preserve it !! I think you may have started a new craft trend !
Well done with your up cycle!!!
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
😂😂😂😂 get up lil drunk baby😂😂 Si cracking me up!
I always enjoy seeing your upcycle projects. Good job Si!
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
I love watching you upcycle what you have found. You are very clever…I was wondering how the tape would keep the resin from leaking, but you did a fabulous job. You have a lot of patience! Btw ❤️Nelly and Daisy.
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡It did take a lot of patience -who needs meditation when you can craft
Couldn't believe how many bottles were there for the taking ?!! Great finds ! Hope to see you go back to that place again in the future with a big bucket next time ?!
End of August once the birds have finished nesting we will be back.
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡 Its an amazing place!
Intro...skip skip skip to my LOOT 🎶 Love it ❣️
lol. Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
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!
Cheers Beth, He's a lovely kid really! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
I was laughing because, in all honesty, I've seen certain others (fully grown) in these videos react in much the same way! 😂
@@Lucinda_Jackson haha right!
😂 it's hurting me that you don't have a bucket to take more back with you LOL😅
I did have a bucket earlier in the day, but left it in the HC, don't worry - we went back and cleaned up
By the way I love what you did with the onion bottle that was awesome
@@gayeknigge1995 cheers Gaye👍🏻🐾🧡
The onion bottle came out sooooo gooood, Simon! Great job! You're so talented.
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Hi Nellie! Hi Daisy!
I love the way you upcycle things. You’ve got me wanting to work with resin again.
Cheers Mudlover! Yes get your craft on! 👍🏻🐾🧡
Sweet little Nelly - better known as " Murder Mittens"
Right! 😆
Cat is a killer hunter and you are a killer finder mr luck in the muck 😂😂😂
Lots of NELSON!! sightings in this episode!
I shall be watching this in the morning when i wake up 🤏 love always your content.. And your collabs!! Hopefully theres some real goodies today... Regards always ❤
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Bottle is really lovely. Work
Of art
Big jugs!! Great reference to one of the greatest shows of all time and the late great Rik Mayall
Legends!
Your onion bottle is beautiful. You added another piece of history to it
The upcycle of the onion bottle was inspired and the end result was amazing!
Great upcycle Si! Very talented indeed x
One of you most interesting video you ever made !!!!!
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
that is amazing ... so much patience to get that tape right... and for the resin layers... great outcome!
Lovely Frankenstein bottle. 😂😂 That creek was a real treasure trove of bottles. You'll definitely have to go back there for more "Luck in the Muck". 😁 Pats and scritches to Daisy & Nelly. 😻😽 See you next time. 😊😸👍👋 Edit: I was thinking it would be fun to try to make a left leg for the Kewpie doll. I know you're pretty adept with modeling clay. What say you? 🤔😉
Great idea! and two arms while I'm at it. Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
What a clever Si 🦘🦘🐨🐨
I thought you were a bit mad to try that with the onion bottle but i'll be damned if you didn't pull it off! Amazing job, Si!
That’s a great repair mate. 👍🇬🇧
Pretty good bottle remake
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!
I was worried too, but you've just got to experiment in life. Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Love the upcycle, very cool. The way you treated that young boy shows what a kind man you are.
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
A fun watch. 6’1”? Would never have guessed. Ha
Everyone is surprised by my height when they see me out. lol
Muddy bottle heaven I would say. My dream is to find a not to be taken one. You have a big portion of patience Si, well done with the onion bottle pieces. Cats are the cutest criminals, naughty Nellie. I have a new kitten 13 weeks, her name is Milli, it's a wild one and our old cat has not yet accepted it at all. Let's see how long it takes. Have a good creative week !
Aww good luck with the new fur babies!!
You should take all the bottles, they are so good
That would make a beautiful candle holder. Always love watching your explores and upcycles.
It would! Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Ha Ha - Old Nelson - just going about the business of being a cat 🙂
Jess is too cute!!
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.
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
That was a fantastic day out m8 many amazing finds But one day soon I feel out on Baby Shark 🦈 you will find your Bottle that you seek 100% complete
Cheers Mark, one day matey, one day... 😊👍🏻👣🧡
That bit of onion bottle would make a good funnel.
haha, it would
Kids are a blast, you just turn it into fun. They are precious and our future. I adore little ones. Yes a handful but worth every second. Just look at the humor they bring. Another enjoyable video from Sci-Finds!!!! Thank you for sharing.
If you put a fold up tote in the pockets of your mudlarking coats or trousers you’ll always have something to carry them in
Hi all, another great recycle ♻️ Si... No Steve today cheers xx
Cheers Joan, Steve has moved to Cornwall
Yeiihhh marvellous news, this new video of yours arriving-as-a notification 🥳💃🏽😍
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Survived the tide and you dropped it 😂
Muddy fingers lol
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!
Oh my days the second you said big jugs, Ade and Rik popped straight in my head, then when you linked it i spat my coffee out laughing ! Brilliant Si lol .
Haha, I LOVED Bottom. I think I know all the scripts off by heart 😂
@@Sifinds History hunter appropriate lines , 'What did medieval people do before tea '? they watched tv probably ,
no before tv was invented,
oh ,they had cock fights -
no wonder they got the plague 🤣🤣🤣
I love the fact you're a cat person, I got my baby hunter in February and I don't know her I lived so lonely without her cuz she's amazing company makes me laugh Daily 😆
Nice finds again and your Franken-onion-mallet bottle is pretty cool! 😊
Awesome Si!!!!!! You are a magician!
And thanks for the encouragement to JUST GO FOR IT. Positive thinking.
"Always look on the bright side.........."
You just gotta try things. Who cares if you fail, god loves a trier. Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
The onion bottle has an ethereal quality to it. Great experiment that went well!
Cheers Brad
So happy to see you do another hovercraft video, it's been awhile !! Nice job on the onion bottle.
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Love the onion bottle upcycle. It's kinda nostalgic like you've replaced or pulled out of the past the missing pieces! I am not english but BRILLIANT! 😂
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡Appreciate that
I love the onion bottle. You gave me a good idea for my own upcycle project. Thanks!
Another Epic upcycle..
I love the blobby rustic-ness of the up-cycled mallet bottle. Must be awesome, it's Daisy approved! 😻
I didn't realise you were so tall... Not saying I thought you were a short arse 😂. What a cracking place, definitely a YES to going back. Loved the up cycling, saving a bit of history 👍
Yes, I'm a big boy, my parents fed me fertilizer as a kid, which is why I worship mud 🤣
9:29 - Rest in peace, Rik Mayall. You made us laugh......
The bottle looks fabulous. You’re so creative.
Loved that up-cycle, unusual.
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Fantastic upcycle Si !!! 🎉
Sweet spot for bottles. Hope to see you go back soon. Love Hovercraft History. ♥️
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Love the finished bottle!
Goes to show the bells on cat collars don’t frighten the birds away! Lol.
I don’t use them as I live in the sticks and when growing up one hot summer one of our cats got caught in a snare. We found her just in time after two days but her head was HUGE. And after that her tongue was always sticking out.
Another great video, thanks!
Awww the little boy is soooo adorable
he is. Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Great bottles
I used to have a black cat named Nelly! It was a girl tho. And she had green eyes. Sadly she passed away, but i got to spend 19 years with her, best cat ever! I absolutely adore black cats. They are the best!

Lots of MRS. NELSON!!~! sightings in the episode as well!
Well done Si. Love it.❤
Simon you do some amazing upcycles, but making an onion bottle out of thin air is just beyond words. Only you could do it. Pet Nelly and Daisy for me. Thanks for your wonderful Sunday surprises. Keep on rockin' it!
Cheers Peggy! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
The babydoll figure appears to kinda resemble a "Kewpie" doll, which were popular in the 1920s & '30s.
Love your up cycled onion bottle.❤❤❤
Fair enough taking a kid on a mudlark adventure but surely they should have wellie boots on!
Additional upcycle idea: put a small candle in the neck of the resin onion bottle
Love your fixed up onion bottle!
Wow. Amazing job ! ❤
Love the craft part of the video well done on the bottle .
Awww cute wee Nellie ❤
I absolutely love the hovercraft sessions. Love adventure of seeing places I will never be able to go. Thanks!
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Love how you fixed the bottle and enjoyed the video thanks
