    Default W&B in Buckeye Burl

    Some time ago Andrew(Harrywally) was kind enough to make a custom brush and also send me some burl for matching scales. I told him how a couple of previous attempts had ended with broken scales so he advised on this as well - wenge veneer liners to give linear strength. I also had the wood stabilised with resin.




    My service is good, fast and cheap. Select any two and discount the third.

    Great scales to match a great brush! Kudos to the both of you!

    Looks like I'm with these guys... I've been saving a set of Buckeye Burl pieces for a rainy day... that might come sooner than I though, absolutely beautiful job!
