    Default Last of the Mohicans so to speak

    Well, I finally finished off the last of 10 knots that I had bought few years back. Got back on the lathe and made a cherry handle, I used bar top resin and turning machine to keep it from running. Made a turner out of an old Water softener timer.
    I’m going to send it out to my youngest brother, he likes to use the brush and the razor so I hope he enjoys it.

    Great looking brush. Cherry is such a beautiful wood.

    It fits nice in the hand. I use two part epoxy for the finish. It’s the Parks Super glaze that you get at Home Depot. Seems to hold up good, I have a brush that is 6 years old and still looks like new.
