    I am just not a fan of wood. But that is a beautiful brush. Well done sir.

    Very nice. Like the grain in that wood. What did you use to finish it? And where do you buy the knots? I have a wood lathe and was thinking abou giving it a try.

    Looks real nice. That is a tall knot. I'm guessing you don't have to go around a moustache.
    Did you make a holder for it as well?
