Thread: Plasti-Dip brush

Neat idea.

If you used the dip type could you chuck it in the lathe and dry it at low rpm?

The lowest I can go is 500 rpm which, I think, would still throw the material outward...... maybe not though. Could try putting it on like a CA finish. hmmmmm....

Golly dangy darn, ya did it again. A new chapter of brush making started. What are ya going to think up next? A stand that hold the brush over the bowl that automatically whips up the lather? Made out of three woods and two plastics, hand painted by ET's from the third moon of Saturn (does it have that many?).

Now you got me thinking....

I have a hand drill with an adjustable variable speed trigger. Dip it then clamp the drill in a vise.

Ohhh pine tar handle finish. Bonus, it helps the fingers grip the skin!

That looks awesome and I imagine would be very durable

I made a Turner from an old water softener timer that turns at 1 rpm, works great for finishing brushes. We moved and I can't find it or I would post some pics

I have a couple of barbecue spit motors somewhere around here somewhere.

I almost forgot what project they were for but now I remember, fishing poles.

Very unique and a great idea.

Great idea! I used some dip type on a kamisori handle and it turned out fine.
