Made this brush over the weekend with my brother in law. He showed me how to use his lathe and I think he was having so much fun that he ended up turning this brush almost to completion.

That is an Amazing Brush!!! Congrats!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks, Bruce. I really had an excellent shave today with it. I also have a frameback with Swedish steel but it needs a little work on its edge before it is completely ready.

Looking forward to seeing the frameback when it's all finished Chris. I know what you mean about doubling down; sometimes the shave with a particular razor is so nice , you want to do it again the next day! LOL

Beautiful Brush! I really love the color (I was contemplating using the black and orange swirl synthetic for some razor scales) It's super nice when you can shave with something that you made yourself. Enjoy your special brush for many years!
