    I ordered a knot from http://www.turchetta.com/goldennib/brushes.htm and received it yesterday. It is a 24MM knot for $24. WOW, what a deal! I have not put it in a handle so I have not used it but it sure looks and feels exactly like what I was wanting. Consider this RECOMMENDED.

    Geoff,
    The more I use the 28mm the more I love it. That brush is a huge handfull of fur! Congrats.
    Don't forget to post pics of the final product.

    I'd be interested in buying a custom made handle or even a completed brush (with either the 24 or 28mm knot from here: http://www.turchetta.com/goldennib/brushes.htm) shipped to the UK.

    If anyone is willing to take me up on it, make me a quote and post some examples of what the handle might look like.

    I made a couple more. The first is another black palm.


    The second is olive wood.
