    My second attempt at the Turned Elk Antler, I actually used a file to get the grooves in there [​IMG]

    Overall Length = 105mm
    Knot size = 24mm
    Loft = 52mm
    Overstuffed Silvertip Bulb
    Base is Nickel Silver and Recon Turquoise

    I really like the look and the feel of these brushes in hand, but they take a bit of care and concentration to work the antler on a lathe, I keep thinking I am going to push it just a tiny bit too much and I am going to see one explode [​IMG]

    Very handsome brush. You did a terrific job with it. But I must admit I misinterpreted the thread title. I was imagining someone mutating into an elk antler.
