    drilling the handles (yeah, that's smoke, even at 700 rpm); testing the fit; what it might look like when done

    redneck clamping jig for brush 2 (using shopsmith as drill press); for brush 3; done drilling (dark purple is burn marks )

    using a drill press this way is dangerous and stupid. don't ever do it. i warned you
