So I made a brush.Have always loved diff. wood combos,This one is a Macasser ebony body with a Lignum Vitae top cap,in a few days the lignum will turn a dark green color when exposed to sunlight as the oils oxidize.
Knot is a 28mm TGN grade A,loft is set at approx 48mm, should be a monster when she blooms.

Thats a darn fine looking brush. Please, post more pics when the color of the wood changes. Nicely done :)
Thank you,the top cap will after a few days look like the top and bottom caps on this brush as the oils in the lignum oxidize from U.V lgt.Quote:
