    Default New Brush

    Made this brush over the weekend. The knot is 24mm Finest Badger extra hair from TGN and the handle is black & orange acrylic. My brother in law has a lathe and he showed me how to use it. he basically turned this brush, I only did a bit of turning at the end and did all the sanding and polishing. Set the knot with marine epoxy. Used it today the feeling was AWESOME!!!! Blossomed out very nicely, just what I was looking for. I am finishing up a wood handled brush and will post once completed.

    Thanks for looking! Any comments are welcomed.

    Very Gucci, I like the handle material. I am needing a new brush. Now I have a case of BAD.

    Well done! That's a real beauty.

    Do you plan to offer any future creations for sale in the SRP Classifieds?

    Thank you for the compliment.

    Thank you for asking. Right now I am not sure. The problem I have is that at the present time I do not have a lathe so any brushes I make have to be planned out well in advance since I have to take everything with me. I am looking into a lathe. We'll see what happens.
