Brush repair/restoration, anyone?
Hello gentlemen,
It is a long time since I last particiapated in a discussion; it was on the old Yahoo forum. I hope everybody is doing all right and carry on the noble art of straight shaving.
I just needed to know if there is anybody who is in the shaving brush restoration/repair "bussiness"; I know that Doc Watson makes new brushes, but I do not know whether there is somebody that repairs/restores them.
Basically, the situation is like this: I have a very old brush which carries some sentimental value for me (it used to be my father's), but the tuft/head is completely worn out. On the other hand, I have a brush with a decent tuft/head, but I don't care too much for its handle.
I wonder if there is anybody willing and able to help a fellow straight edge shaver and to fix the brush head on that old handle. I am willing to cover all the expenses which that person might incur in the process, and to pay a fair compensation for labor and time spent.
If there is anybody who would like to take this upon himself, please let me know so we can work out the details.
Thank you,
George
