I'm having difficulty finding acrylic brush handles, that I can put my own knot in. I enjoy seeing members custom brushes, with elaborately designed handles. It would be nice to have a list of all the makers, so that I, as well as others, can more easily look at and narrow my choices. Pictures of members custom handles, that they bought, and put their knot inside, would be a bonus for me. 1.

Bob Quinn. Elite Razor. Sweet handles, a ton of choices in acrylic, wood, stone, and shockwood. You are just looking for a handle, and all of Bob's are available without a knot, but if you ever need one his Manchurian Whites are awesome. http://www.eliterazor.com/product-category/shaving-brushes/acrylic-brushes/
Steve @oscar11 has done a couple for me. That was quite a while ago, though. Don't know if he's still doing that.
On ETSY: Wild West Brushworks, Knotsinyourhead, Mozingo, Honey Farm Designs. I have brush handles from all of them plus Elite Razor, Whipped Dog, and oscar11(mostly retired from brush making)
Rudy Vey! I cannot remember his screen name here though... This is the only brush I have been using for nearly two years. I packed all the others up except for Chubbz 1 that Daleski gave me. Oscar11 makes very fine handles too.
Lowborn Supply on Etsy has beautiful brushes and they're reasonably priced. Lou firlot on Facebook also does custom brushes but his are truly custom one-of-a-kind brushes. He's a little more expensive then some of the others but builds Game of Thrones any sports team and a number of other custom type brushes. Sent from my SM-G930P using Tapatalk
Nice brush. What is the diameter of the knot? Chubbz 3 is still in use as well with an Omega Baby Pro Knot. Glad to see it is still rocking.
The knot is a Shavemac D01 Two-band Silvertip Flattop knot. The size/loft is approx 21/42 mm. The style of handle is a modified beehive, with larger than normal bumps.
Love Your Shave handles are really nice, too. Vladimir is only showing complete brushes on his Etsy page, but he does custom requests. https://www.etsy.com/shop/LoveYourShave Mine was sold as a handle and a friend put a Shavemac D01 in it.
