Thread: First brush restore mistake

Here is a double duck set in rubber number two with old brush removed.. I made a mistake with the drill as u can see .. I figure once new brush is set I won't see the mistakes anyways.. My problem is I don't have calipers and have no idea what size brush to get .. The whole seems bigger then a quarter all,around what would be a safe size brush to get I could always open up the hole more?. Next post pic..

here is the brush opening

Combined and moved to Brush Forum

My bad thank u sir..

Just measure the opening with a rule and convert the inch measurement to mm using Inches to Millimeters - in to mm conversion or similar converter program.

Next time gonna use grinding wheel instead of bit.. learn from mistakes when u guys set the loft how do u determine what the right loft is.. not to floppy??

I got the hole smooth I was just thinking of dropping a wine cork in and setting in epoxy?. What could I use for an o ring ?.

Here is what I got.. The brush fit in the hole is smooth.. I dropped a calk inside think its ok to epoxy how do I determine the loft

The loft is from the rim of the handle to the top of the hair,what size knot is it? the plug dia. do you face lather or bowl lather?

Bowl lather its a 22 silvertip I just need to figure out the loft and I think it will work.. I'm gonna have to live with the slight crack but as long as I can use it
