Almost all my brush handles are composits of many diff materials.they take several days to make.
This one is Ebony, Fossil seacow Bone and Ivory,Each segment is pricision turned to insure a seamless fit.
Than Line bored and dowelled in place.
They are turned exact before the hand work begins.
I get asked about how I do this all the time,thus this post.

So, you are saying trying to turn such a brush on a drill press will not work:rofl2:
You can try, but it will not work with a drillpress:)Quote:

I think I prefer a lathe also for spinning wood.
But true skill and ability come with time which is what only a few brush turners seem to show repeatedly here
Especially with composite handles of differing material densities etc.
I can attest to his "seamless fits", they are truly that. I don't even have a lathe and am watching to learn...
