And the final piece! The new owner opted out of the brass candlestick base. Though the brush is designed to use one, as it does not stand well on its own, he thinks it looks more like the Nautilus while resting on its side. Which I can agree with.
I put a magnet in the base for good measure, just in case he wants to hang it.

It's very sturdy, and strong.
Works great! Many positions available, once your fingers become accustomed to the feel of the contours.
So I'm glad that it's not just a display piece, but functions quite well.
Thanks for looking, I hope to make and see more strange projects! It was a fun one!
