Thank you, I try to keep it all to a minimum but I’m not good at knowing what to leave behind sometimes! The Stablos are so handy, aren’t they? Definitely worth the expense. Thank you for watching and commenting!
Hi! I have had this box from schmincke for a long time and I have to say that even when I really loved it and used it a lot, it started to bend over time and got inflated and suddenly it wouldn’t close anymore, so I had to modify it by cutting the pieces of metal inside and leaving it all a flatter surface. It still works, but I can’t fill it with water anymore or it does bloat again. Thanks for the review and love your channel!
Hi! That’s very useful to know, thank you; I’ve only had it a couple of weeks and only used it a handful of times, so it’ll be interesting to see how it holds up over time then. I saw another review yesterday saying the quality wasn’t great, so we’ll see… maybe I’ll do an update when I’ve had it longer. Thank you so much for watching and taking the time to comment, I’m so pleased you like the channel, it’s very new so it’s really encouraging to hear, thank you!
Strange...I just saw another Utube about this box and the same thing was happening - it was swelling out forcing the pans up at an angle stopping the lid from closing. I hasnt happened mine yet but I rarely use the water reservoir. Probably gases in the water expanding. I must remember never to leave water sitting in there for prolonged periods of time.
As mentioned below, it's a great set BUT it will bloat and expand when the water reservoir is left with water in it. I suspect it's simple evaporation expansion. In hindsight, I should have emptied it when not using it for prolonged periods of time. So... there it is; golden advice! Empty when not in use, particularly when left for prolonged periods. Another point is, it takes about a week (irony!) to drip the water into the attached wash container from the reservoir. It really does 'drip-drip-drip' out... but hey... nothing's perfect, right!? 😉👌
Thank you, I’ll empty mine when I’ve got a few days to spare! ;-) As I mention in the video, I find the plastic W&N one so much easier because you can squeeze it to get the water out. I might treat myself to the proper Whiskey Painter one some day… Anyway, thank you so much for watching and commenting and the helpful info!
Excellent! Thank you for sharing. ✌🏻😊
