Thread: Custom made brush *video*

Thanks for taking the time to make the informative video. It will certainly help. Mighty fine lather you whipped up there!

You did a great job on the video. I laughed aloud about finding a badger and trying to shave him myself. NOT WITH THOSE TEETH I WON'T.
The demo was also impressive, and you've inspired me to make my own first brush. I'm going to create my own handle and have someone else fight the badger. They are going to sell me the biggest piece they can grab while the badger isn't looking. perhaps distract it with some food in the other hand.
(maybe I should consider a badger as a pet...yeah right).
but seriously, I did like the video. One piece of constructive criticism...
I didn't know what the rosewood soap in your hand was until said it on tape. I thought there should have been some additional lighting over your head as you tilted the jar. Very minor. it was only about a 2 second length of confusion.
I want to add that I recognized your face from the video you did with the feather razor from a previous video. That too was entertaining. I've seen people with their heads shaved, but you were the first person I watched shave their head. It hasn't yet inspired me to shave my head, but I will make my own badger brush.
If you did mention it, I'm sorry, but could you tell me the size of badger hair you chose?
I too am banging my knuckles against my mug. I was stupid not to think of a longer handled brush.

Great Video. Very informative. Beautiful brush. Thank you for that.

My Favorite line was "That's some fine lather. " I'm still laughing at that one.

With that much lather I think you are going to need an even longer handle
Thanks for the video!

Another awesome video! What did you use to do the editing?
I love your brush. I want one!

What size of knot did you use?

Enjoyed the vid as well.

you picked a beautiful piece of wood and finished the right way,keep it oiled or she might crack on you.i love the look of oiled wood or horn buffed just right.

Well done!! And i think we all learned a little something. Thanks for taking the time.

Im glad you guys liked the video.

Thx for the criticism, I see too, that the light (and maybe the angle on the shot) could have been better.

But I just have to know: Whats so funny about "thats a fine lather" ??? Please tell me

The knot is I think 26 mm, and the loft is 60 mm. A great size, a bit big, I like it alot. It performs awesomely.

The editting program is Powerdirector, very userfriendly. They have a 30 day trial, and then its either 69/99 $ I think. I most likely will by this program.

PS: Can anyone tell me why the video is not yet available in HD? I recorded and uploaded it in HD, and thats 36 hours ago...
