Thread: Yankee Razor & Brush set

A colleague of mine wanted a couple of brushes and razors sets: one in a monogram and another in a Yankee's logo.
Still waiting for the monogram, but here is the Yankees set: I used KC Photog's process http://straightrazorpalace.com/brush...-handle-2.html of turning the brush on a mandrill (thanks for the tip). The material's are African Blackwood, Bacote with Acrylic inlay around the logo.
The knot is from TGN banded boar. This knot comes in a plastic sleeve which I removed. The knot is about 24mm after the sleeve removal. I'll post pics of the monogram when complete.
Thanks for viewing.

Very well done! Love the shape and choices of wood.

Those plastic bands on the boar knots I always remove too. They just look ugly!

What's the material in between the Bacote and African Blackwood? I really love how it breaks up the connection of the 2 woods.

Thank you.
That's a trick I picked up from making pens: Its the hotel key from a Hampton Inn. ATTACH=CONFIG]225546[/ATTACH]

And now someone else has learned. That's brilliant! Thank you!
