Brad, that's easy the coolest brush I've ever seen. I love it. Thanks for sharing!
Beautifull Brad. That's all I can say!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
As far as bubbles and epoxy go, I mix small batches inside of a ziplock bag. I use resin research, or West Systems epoxy, and just pour both parts into a ziplock. After squeezing out all the air, you can seal the bag, then just squish the epoxy around for a good three or four minutes. I haven't had any problems with gooey, not mixed epoxy with this technique, and you end up with bubble free epoxy.
And I really like your brush. It would look great on a sailboat.
Nice work! For a heads up there is an epoxy that is used in making fly rods that dries very slowly and because of that bubbles are less of a problem.
Take care,
Richard
Nice one Brad. Even more impressive that it survived the evil Mr.Toes. Clever bugger pretending to sleep like that :D
If you don't already have it, may I recommend the Encyclopedia of Rawhide and Leather Braiding by Bruce Grant. Some neat knots in there too.
