My first attempt at a brush restoration
I just got this in the mail today. I'm going to attempt to restore some old shaving brushes. I figure this is a cheap way to get a new brush or three without paying heaps.
I bought this Cavalier brush from ebay. When I got it, it was a little stained and had ratty old boar bristles. Before I thought about taking any photos I attacked it with a pair of sharp scissors and a drill to get rid of the old knot. It was no where near as deep as I thought it would be. The handle still has a few scratches, but I'm not sure if I should bother to polish them out or not.
Now I'm waiting for the knot to arrive and I'll be able to put it all together. Just hoping that the hole is big enough. I don't like the thought of having to enlarge the hole. Anyway, here are a few pictures of my progress so far.
