That is simply stunning Andrew.
I presume a Shavemac knot will be fitted.

Dang Andrew, another amazing brush

You sure have the knack to create some very eye catching pieces

Hi guys. It sure takes some time to catch up on here. By the time I get to the bottom of a page, 2, more appear.

Andrew, that brush is really gorgeous.
Hopefully I will be able to make some brushes soon since I finally got me a truck. Three months w/o wheels was about to drive me crazy & that's the longest I have ever gone w/o any since I was a teen. Now I'll be able to go get my lathe I have spoken of many, many times. I made a couple of brushes before out of elk horn using a cheap drill press with forstner bits but they would walk & I know a lathe is the thing to have. My dad left it to me anyway & my brother was going to take it at one time but my sis said no, that it was left to me. I haven't done much lately because I had so much going on but I think I might be able to work some razors in now.

I have this Fred Fenney Buckeye that was needing some scales & because of the beautiful smile, I needed to find some scales that have some curve to them & I came across these old scales. I had to clean the blade up some & so I stopped where it's at but it was pitted & so on but I'm happy with the way it looks now. The scales have a couple of chips in them that need filling in but they'll do for now.

My girlfriend bought me this handmade Tamboti and Yellowwood box this afternoon, so I decided to line it for my Iwasaki.

A special razor needs a special home.

That is gorgeous, Andrew-You guys never cease to amaze me with your talent!

Back to work on my Greaves and sons, was working on getting a bevel then the more I looked at it the less happy I was. So... back to sanding. Back side up to 2k, show side 240 and my fingers started to ache. But it is a start in the right direction.

Ps Andrew that's a kick butt brush!

Gave this, Gulatt Razor Co. a quick going over last nite, and honed it up for tomorrow's shave, tonight.

A piece of razor history! Atlanta! Great save!

High chair restore for my daughter when she is born. No clue as to age maybe early 1900's??

Thanks ,Tom.
But that's the one thing I haven't found, on it. Still looking.
It was nice, being able to reuse the original collars, but I added a set of wear washers, between the scales.

Gotta have um.!! IMO
Works sooo much smoother. [emoji57]
