With all due respects you set a knot just below the base your going to have one floppy brush with a loft well over 60mm.
For a face lathering brush you want a loft of about 47/52mm max,Bowl lathering maybe 56/58.
Any two part epoxy well work,when cured they are all waterproof.
I read at least 40 pages of posts about brushes yesterday, I thought my head might explode. Just now I had to look through a bunch of them again to find the word I was looking for. Backbone -> the relative stiffness of the brush?

So, if you put the knot in the handle shallow you get more loft. If you place the knot deep you get more backbone, correct?
