    Default A little brush for a little guy

    Hello all. Posting a picture of a small brush that I made for a coworkers 6 year old son. When he shaves his son has to shave with him.
    He wants a brush like his dads. I felt it was my calling to oblige!!

    That’s a nice looking brush. The little guy is going to be proud. Maybe dad can register him on the forum? ;-)

    You do nice work.

    First we have a big brush for a big guy and now a little brush for a little guy. How about a brush for my Husky. She loves badger brushes and wood handles are her favorite. She prefers pure badger. She says they taste the best.

    woof, woof.

    Great Job. I am sure his son loved it. We are very fortunate to be part of a community of selfless people. I have been the recipient of this myself. Bill and Oz made my son a straight razor and a shaving brush. Walleyeman you are a fine example of what makes this community the friendliest place to learn and make friends. Again, I want to thank all our great members. Walleyeman you Rock.

    Thanks everyone for the kind words and also looking and posting!
    I am positively sure everyone here at SRP would have done the same thing!!!
    The knot was a 18 mm silver tip. The youngsters favorite colors are blue and green.
    I had never given it any thought for size but it would be best described as 1/3 less in size as a normal brush, if that makes any sense. If there is a normal size!
    He likes to lather up with dad and has a plastic toy razor that he shaves with. He has his own mug and soap also. I had picked up a Marvey brush at a beauty supply store a while back for him because it was a very small one and I thought he could handle it well.
    Well it worked for a while but he had his sights on his dads brush!!
    When his dad mentioned that he was wanting a "mans" brush i looked through my knots and found this one. I had just received an order of acrylics for handles and thought what the heck. I felt it was my duty as a father and friend to oblige him with a custom brush.
    I took it upon myself to make it up for him without dads permission. Dad was very surprised and offered to pay me.
    I couldn't take anything for it because that was not the intention!
    I felt that doing a good thing may have returns for me later in life when I need some help or something.
    I didn't mean to be so long winded gentlemen.
    Be well!!
