    Well I finally got around to finishing this brush.
    Still need to complete the CA finish. Don't have any epoxy so I scuffed up the brass and mounted with CA and decided at that moment for a CA finish being that it was all over the handle already!
    Carved out the relief to inlay the brass into the pipe.
    The rim of the pipe was too thick, so I carved it thin with a knife and sanded it smooth so that it comes down to the thickness of the knot.
    I think it's an 18mm not.
    I put magnets into the candlestick base, and into the base of the pipe.
    The knot is not glued in yet, and I'm debating whether or not to use hard wax or epoxy.
    But this test is looking good I think.
    I dropped the knot lower in on this one than I normally do because B52 gave me a brush recently that has a shorter height and I really like it.
