    Happy to share gents. This forum, and the workshop in particular have given me a wealth of insight and experience sharing from those with a lot more hours on the blades than I do.
    Enjoy giving back in kind and capturing the works along the way..
    Keeps the place interesting.
    I've been quiet of late (busy in less fun ways) so needed to find some time to get back into a few post worthy projects..
    Cheers.

    Looking great, Mike! Some pics of that 'snarling' process would be cool!

    Will do Tom.
    That part, might be worth setting up the video for as it's a two handed job and there won't be free hands for the camera. Maybe I can tape my phone above the work area or some other high tech solution.

    I have a #3. Original long-hair boar. Only one left.

    At one time back years ago, I had 6 or 8 ofem. Was buying them for 8 bucks or so.
    Polished them up and filled them with TGN knots and sold half (cheap!), gave half away.

    Ain't that some shit.

    If you show up at my door, no need for the covert stuff.
    I will bring you in, make you a drink, and hand that brush over.
    That's the deal!
