If you have used the clear before, and it doesn't expand that will work well.

Otherwise I would go with a clear two part epoxy. That's what I used. Seal the socket area up with it, but dont let it squish out onto the hair knot.

See the pic of the NEW Gorilla Epoxy. I got it at Home Depot.

NICE !!!!

After seeing that, I want to try something like it. I'm going to keep my eye out for old brushes that have good handles on them.

Thanks 10Pups.

Well it sure felt good this morning !
Thanks Glen, I got the black badger idea from one of your creations as I recall. I always liked black and chrome stuff.
Hirlau you can get a bunch on the bay.
And Lemur that gear was a chunk of aluminum plate I cut out with a band saw,filed and polished for weeks. I made it into a pen holder for my father on his birthday when I was 16 in shop class. I forgot about it until he passed. A friend of his brought it to me and said it was on his desk for 30 some years. I may turn it into a razor stand for pictures or the base of a brush holder.

I'm not going to get mine from Ebay, I like saving them from the dusty shelves of antique stores.
No bidding for me.

It's always fun to find something unloved and give it a new home!

Truly is....
