    Default mesquite boar brush

    Here is a test on a boar brush. I will make a longer one next, silvertip brush with custom stand. I am currently making matching scales for a W/B frameback. Thought I would try an angled position on brush for a more ergonomic feel. We'll see how it works tonight.

    This was just a first mockup. I really like the angle. Next one will have a custom stand with it.

    Not a big difference cause it is so short. Next one will be longer but I can tell I like the angle so far. The big difference is the grain of the wood has more grip when wet and lathery unlike the plastic handle I cut off. I used to drop it cause it was so slippery.
