I'm very interested in hearing more details about this new method of end pours. If you put epoxy in a bulkhead and then tip the kayak up to spill it into the bow, then wouldn't that occur in a closed space isolated by the bulkhead? How does it work?

I've done something like this (I think we are talking about the same method....)
You make a small bulkhead ('wall') a short distance back from the very end of the hull (before the deck is attached) and then pour thickened epoxy (or 'leftovers) into the space.
You can do the same for the end of the deck section when you have it upside-down, if you want.
The bulkhead can be 'permanent' i.e. wood or glass or something temporary - I've used foam and just dissolved it away once the epoxy set.

There's no need to tip the boat on its end, but you do eliminate the show for the neighbours! ("Why do you have your kayak leaning against the house???")
