Smaller Canals, PVC

These are based on my monster canals which are 11" long and 4oz, which are too big for most people.

these are 7" and 3oz, easy to get the right action and cast great.

made from laminated PVC, 1.5" screw eyes and 4x VMCs

hopefully these will be put to the test real soon.

Chris,
I love the orange one on the end, what kind of finish is that?

Thanks,
Mike

its called "zuri crackle" my scheme, its made up from two paints that dont bond together so you spray one and while its wet, spray the other one, depending on the thickness it will give you different results.

valspar makes crackle paints but there all basic colors and nothing bright.

Spray just about any flat over a gloss (Not Semi)... Voila! crackle.
