Custom silvertip
Just wrapped this brush up yesterday for a fellow member here on SRP. It's a TGN 18mm grade A silvertip, set at 43mm loft. The handle is an extra long handle that consists of a curly maple top, and crotch walnut bottom. It's a whopping 5" long handle which will make it great for deep bowl lathering. The style of the handle I eye balled from a picture, and added a bit of my own touch to the bottom portion of the handle for a nicer grip and feel. The Chatoyance in both pieces of wood is some of the best I've seen, and is beautiful on this piece.

Beautiful work Andrew.
I'd love a deeper bowl brush such as that.
Really nice turn, and like you said, super shimmery

Thanks Mike.
That top piece of curly maple I got at the Tilsonburg meet. I traded Mike, Mcbladescar, a piece of birds eye for this curly hunk. The crotch walnut I actually got from the guy at the Aberfoyle antique market who makes the rustic cutting boards and tables. He was crazy to sell me such an amazing piece of walnut.Last edited by HARRYWALLY; 03-08-2014 at 01:30 AM.
