    Thanks but No Thanks! I've had more than my share of 3/8's to work on for others and I know what they are like. And they can keep 'em! Give me a much larger blade any day!

    A few Blue Jays games later, I am finally very close to having this brush done. Was up late last night trying my hand and some flat spots on this one. Think I have it pretty good.

    Done... For the most part. I touched the main body of the brush with my lower grit paper. Back on the lathe to buff those out, and then paint the inside of the cup.

    I really like the flats on the base. Beautiful brush!

    Great looking inspiration, and finished handle Andrew.
    Flats and angled facets really set off the finished look, but surely increase the construction time.
    Beautiful handle.
