You’re truly one of a kind! Thank you so much for your incredibly brilliant ideas, tips and tricks! Sometimes I wanna throw in the towel and never build something again because I’m new and make many mistakes but watching your tutorials encourages me to keep on! Thank you! Pls don’t stop making videos, I feel I can speak on behalf of many that you’re highly valued and appreciated

Colin, about driving out oxygen to avoid drying in a jar og container, , i simply place the jar upside down, because the dryling now is in the bottom, and when again going to use it, all the paint is still fluid and fresh expect in the bottom, not being a problem

I have been throwing away about one of these jugs once a week for years. I always thought there must be another use for them. Now I have it! Thanks Colin.

I like to save the little white plastic "tables" that come on the center of your pizza and I use those to set finished items on, or while I'm finishing it, free, washable and quite handy, you can also tap multiple together for larger projects!

Great tips Colin, I'm definitely going to use the plastic jug for cleaning brushes and saving the cleaning fluid, I seem to go through so much of it and this would be really beneficial in cutting down the amount I use. Thank you very much.
