thank you all for the reply's
the batterys are about a year and a halv old .and used them for forming ..all beat up .
they are the imr type and still working at least for a couple of hrs with the sx350..
I am happy with the shape and form ..and function the finnish is not so great . will try some linseed oil and wax the next time.

Agreed, now that you mention apprenticeships...Rolf, I'm curious...boat builder by trade?...my dad did that for years, about the same skill sets, with a love of glass, fiber and resins and structural integrity.
