Thread: Been making some brushes...

I have created a brush in Red Wine Pearl resin. The handle is fairly small, but I really like the shape.

Brush Dimensions (approximate):

Total height: 91mm
Handle: 42mm
Loft: 49mm
Knot: 24mm Bulb shape

Vferdman, that is a very handsome brush. I really dig the handle color.

WOW! Do you like using large brushes? I just used the big one today and although it's a great brush, I prefer smaller ones. My hands are fairly small and I made this one for large hands. I think a large handed gentleman will really dig it. It's fun to wield that handle.

Are those laminated woods? Looks like several types of wood. Great work, especially on the REAL BIG one. I love that shape.

Yes they are differant woods Doweled and glued together.
I do not Like large knots,My gold standard is 24mm,Have been using the same 7 brushes for almost 10 yrs.

[QUOTE=vferdman;1393936]I have created another brush made with Dymondwod and TGN two band finest. This one was inspired by one of my favorite vintage handles - the Ever-Ready 100T/200T/300PBT. It's the hourglass shape, I really like the way this came out. the handle is petite and feels great in hand. I finished it with multiple (over a dozen) coats of CA (crazy glue) and polished it to a glass-like shine.

Brush Dimensions (approximate):


Total height: 100mm
Handle: 50mm
Loft: 50mm
Knot: 25mm bulb shape

Simply gorgeous!!!!!!!!!!!

I have just completed a brush in Burmese Blackwood and TGN two band finest badger. I really love this wood! It is super dense, making the handle very heavy. I used CA to create a glass-like finish of over a dozen coats. This brush is one of my very favorites so far to come off my lathe.

Brush Dimensions (approximate):

Total height: 110mm
Handle: 60mm
Loft: 50mm
Knot: 27mm Bulb shape

I made another brush in a resin handle. I call this "Burnt Butterscotch Pearl". There is a lot going on in this material. Black, red, gold, pearl, all swirling together in a mesmerizing display. The knot is TGN two band finest. I really like this brush a lot.
