Thread: The Wee Scott

Why did simpson ever make such a tiny thing? I realize they have a Following but they are tiny.I found a 14mm knot someone gave me long ago so going thru an old simpson catalog I decided to make one (I have all the specs),Sorta cute in a funny way))))())))))))))

I think one needs to use this brush to appreciate what a wonderful brush it is. I bought one for a travel brush and actually laughed when opening the box to see what a small brush it is. After using the brush, the laugh was on me! It lathers beautifully. I use it in my regular brush rotation.

For the ladies or maybe for a pilots survival kit?
You got a matching razor for it?

Pilots survival Kit ?? do downed pilots shave?

I'm sure they do!
I've been trying to teach some pilots about survival and bush craft (SERE) but their mindset is not the same as us ground hugging operators!

There is something for everyone. The brush has a big following (no pun) so that is reason enough to make it and those who love it must know something others don't.

Maybe for men with little hands.

The wee scott is a great little brush and punches way, way above its weight class. It's the only Simpson brush that's passed into my hands that I've kept. It's virtue as a travel brush is how quickly it dries and how little space it takes up on the little bathroom counters in hotels.

I was thinking travel but also if you have a lot of detail to your facial hair. Like mustache, spit, burns with chops, and maybe a small goat. Not much to shave and so it would put the lather where you need it and not fill your beard parts. How do you make 1. 1/4 a knot and set it half way in the handle for a loft ?

You use a 14mm Knot and set the loft at 36mm,simple stuff.
