I can't get your link to work... I tried helping out, but the SMC server tells me that your attachment ID is invalid.

Did you shave your shaving brush? We can't see it:)

[Kenneth Hertzog]

I think I got it but don't ask me how
there are just some things I quit questioning
what does anyone think of these now that they can see them
the one on the right ( OAK ) is the one that I use

thank you for your opinions

For some reason, my perceptioin shifted as I was looking at them and suddenly I was thinking of four well groomed guys and the shaggy haired guy on the end.:D Yet another thing that lends itself to a nice turning.

[Gary DeWitt]

Nice looking brushes, yet another utilitarian thing to turn that I hadn't thought of. Are they made from a kit? Where did you get the acrylic blanks that size?

[Jim Dunn]

Looks line a line up pf sorts. "Yeah officer it was that guy on the right with the bad hair":) Real nice brushes all together though.

The brush came from aftosa.com and the acrylic, which PSI use to carry, came in 2 inch square blocks 6 inchs long. the acrylic is no longer available.
really not a kit of sort.

Oh man...those are cool Ken! Makes me think of all the other "brush-type" things that can be done.....you know, like a gift for your favorite archaeologist or somethin'.;)

[Ernie Nyvall]

Cery cool Kenneth. They look great.

Kenneth,
The price of $12.50 per dozen at Aftos is very inexpensive for the brush. I've seen fancy badger hair brushes as much as $30 just for one brush. Is the brush a natural or synthetic product?

I made a segmented shaving cup I use every day almost two years ago. Folks told me it would never last, that the moisture would have it in pieces in a matter of weeks but with about 10 coats each of oil and poly its holding up quite well. I need to turn a matching brush.
