    Default 20 mm Golden nib WIP

    Not much to start with but it is the same material that I used for the http://straightrazorpalace.com/workshop/49907-here
    This time it will be stacked horizontally.





    Will post more after all pieces are glued together.

    I'd go with a hybrid of two and three. Take the bulby top thing from three and spread the bottom out like you do on 2. That'd make a nice handle IMO

    2 all day long. It's similar to the shape of my "dowel rod, drill press, and file" brush I have in the works.

    So after two trial attempts at final shape number 4, this is what I came up with.
