My Brush Repairs, Restorations & Builds

@Enrico Absolutely stunning!!
That is a gorgeous brush. Great job!!

 

Thank you Steve ..... if nothing else it's unique.

 

The donor a zenith with a crack on the handle. The new one with a vintage toothpick holder. Polished with beeswax

 

Sometimes I like to make brushes that are not worth the money, but in the end, I'm glad I did .......

About fourteen months ago I saw this on Mercari .........



It was listed as a Fisher Price scrub brush. I hemmed and hawed, but finally broke down and bought it for less than $10 shipped. I know a toy ..... really?

Well I recently removed the cloth knot bored it out and weighted with BBs and epoxy. I found a second hand $50 oumo brush for less than $20 and stole the knot.



The end result is a nice hefty brush that lathers very well ........ and best of all it's a butterscotch!

And as always ....... more to come!

 

Very good. Great result.

 

Thank you Jim

 

Convenience doesn't always rule my thoughts and I recognize myself in what you did.
Very nice!

Thank you ..... I'm a mix and match sort of guy. Whether it's wood working, bike building, or brush building ..... I build what I like.
