    Default A slim waist and hairy

    That is how I would describe this brush that I made with my new actual lathe Before, I turned wood on my buffer, and this is such a relief. I didn't really have a design in mind, other than a slim waist. It turned out to look a little bit like a flower.

    And this is my baby lathe, brilliant! It didn't fit, so I had to extend the cabinet a little on the right side.

    I screwed her to prevent her from breaking. I mean, I drilled a hole before setting the knot and put a screw in. This camphor wood is quite soft and I don't want it to break

    Not seen that shape before anywhere. Looks like you can get a good grip on it when it gets covered with lather. Even if you use harder wood putting in a screw for stability is a good idea. What would your price be for a harder wood with a soft, bushy, synthetic knot? PM me if selling. Or even just the handle and I'll find the knot.
