Is there any way to get a two band Thater knot? I love my Thater brush, but I just bought a Georgetown Pottery G20 Scuttle, and the straight sides, with the bowl diameter to depth ratio I need a longer handled brush. But I don't want to give up my Thater two band. Also I've always wanted an Ivory handled brush, so if I can get just the knot I could make one. On the other hand does anybody know if Thater makes a longer handled two band brush?
Let me explain about the scuttle. The bowl has rather straight sides, to keep the lather in the bowl. It works pretty good. But with these straight side the bowl is to deep for the diameter. The handle of the brush is inside the bowl which restricts your wiping motion, and your ability to use the side of the bowl. Other then that it's a very nice scuttle. The raised ridges on the sides, and bumps on the bottom do seem to help whip up a really nice lather. And the thickness of the ceramics and the water capacity do combine to heat and keep warm the lather very nicely. I would really like this scuttle if they kept everything the same only widened it so the inner bowl was an inch bigger in diameter. However, I don't think they are going to redesign there NEW scuttle just because I don't like the dimensions. So back to getting new brush. Baring the above, are any of the Simpsons with a longer handle comparable to the Thater two band?
