Son made an aluminum Badger hair brush

My youngest son was bored on a snow day from work a few weeks ago so he decided to melt down some aluminum scrap in his forge, and turn it down to a nice shave brush handle on his Southbend lathe. Took a boring bar to the knot cavity on his Bridgeport mill. Turned out pretty nice and much more fitting for him, a metal worker, than the wood ones I turn. Here's some shots of the scrap sitting on top of the forge, the finished handle and the finished brush.
