Looks great! The one brush I made was also on a lathe and out of aluminum. Hefty weight and probably my favorite of my two brushes. Use it 90% of the time!

That brush is amazing! I like a brush with some heft.
Any chance you could hide/recess a neonidium earth magnet in the base? That way you could hang it upside down say from the bottom of a vanity?

the one i made here was 120g. i thought i liked the waight in it. but yes it could have been hollowed out more and that would most likely save about 40% of the waight Originally Posted by rocarule

They're about the size of a smartee (the little candy). And super strong! I had to screw a golf ball to one just so I had something to grab onto to remove it from my refrigerator lol
