    Wow Danny, I see the turning bug bit you too. Very relaxing hobby I find. You could always put CA glue on the 1st brush with crack and rechuck the 2nd handle and hollow out for larger knot. Those are way too nice to scrap in mt opinion. Great work !

    It is relaxing and thanks for the kind words. I need to get some more wood blanks cut this weekend. It would be hard for me to rechuck. I don't have a jaw chuck and I have to bore the knot bore with a drill press. I do need to get a better forstren bit. What is CA glue?

    I see you googled the glue, fancy word for plain old crazy glue. I was lucky to find a jaw chuck for 40 bucks and havent used it yet though. Been using spur center for my turns . I dont have forstner bits so i used spade bits in a coedledd drill. Next brush handle i try i will utilize the chuck to drill. And btw , yes your work is very very nice. So glad to see you dusted the lathe off !
