    How could anyone having seen that brush not want it? Regardless of what that pedantic person thinks, it is clearly a beautiful piece of work

    If it's a Member, they ought to be banned! That's shameful!!!!!!!!!

    To use the slight differences within the tolerances as an excuse to not pay for the work is Inexcusable!!!

    While I've lost a couple of razor from loaning, I've accepted the fact that things happen and have let it go; but to blatantly refuse to not pay for your time, materials and expertise should have consequences!

    Maybe I'm way off base here, but that's the way I feel!

    Give me his address. I'll get it back for you. Or, if you prefer, I can use the brush as a go/nogo gauge and check if his as**ole is up to spec...

    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    I feel for you as a similar thing happened to me when I used to make custom instrument cases, I'm sure you'll be able to sell it and not actually lose anything though.

    Very nice brush. Did you get that close to specs with hand tools?
