    Default Brush handle for a REALLY big guy

    Said he was 6 ft 7 well over 300 lbs with hugh hands,could I make him a brush with a large grip ring.
    So I made two He did not want a knot any larger than 24mm.
    Used my fave woods,CoCobolo,lignum center band,african Blackwood top, 24mm TGN grade A Knots.

    Boy! If he drops that one, it's his own fault!
    Nice Work, Pixel. It is good to have a craftsman like you here to accommodate everyone's brush needs! Whatever they may be!
    Nice Work!
