Hate the brush - Love the handle. Never done this before.

Horsehair, apparently, is not my bag. After a minute in the vice out popped the knot neat and complete with metal retainer band - nail protruding from the base of the handle, totally clean of glue.

So, brush guys, I am on the hunt for some power-badger or nice boar bristle. What do I measure as far as diameter and from what point is length measured? How is density measured? And from whence come replacement knots?

I await your kind direction. Favorite brushes? Semogue 1305 (perfectly soft and a great size) and an Omega 10049 (perfectly stiff and almost too big).

Whats the demension of the bore?

Retaining ring on the knot is 20mm;
bore in handle is 21.5mm;
knot from tip to toe is 75mm.

I have some very nice 20mm boar Knots,yours for the cost of shipping.

Well, thanks! You are the man.

So, for the record how does one identify the length? Top to bottom regardless of bore depth?

The knots I have are 60mm tall but you can make the higher if you wish with a spacer,Pennys work well.

Roger that.

After. Perfect. Thanks @pixelfixed.
