On a brush Deal,guy sends me Computer generated Drawings of a travel brush he wants made (no question an Engineer of sorts)
His specs: Solid Black Buffalo Horn,22mm Grade A TGN knot, low loft at 44mm,handle is to be within +/- .001.
Ya right I tell him,will do my best,Got it within .003 Thou, he emails back and tells me since I did not follow his specs,he will not pay for the brush.People are funny
I think it turned out nice.
CAUTION

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

Well I'd bet the problems with the numbers wasn't .001 vs .003 ........ but the guy's SWMBO ......... said 'What ! Another brush!! ?' Or maybe he just ran short of $ ?
Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

Omg what an ass. He should send it back. You should have people pay up front before shippinf but offera money back within one week if they dont like it. But they must return the item.

Funny isn't the word I would have used. You are nicer than I am. And you are right, that is a nice brush! Originally Posted by pixelfixed

Sounds to me he simply changed his mind and didn't have the integrity to just say so.
