Shaving brush madness

[eskimo]

OK, I may have gotten a little carried away with making shaving brushes, but someone has to keep Tony in business. The woods are from left to right: Snakewood, Cocobolo, Zebrawood. Tigerwood, Grey Box, African Blackwood with a Turquoise inset.

All were finished with 6 coats of Spar Marine Varnish.

Thanks for looking.

Nice brushes, they are fun to make. Marine varnish, how did you apply it.

You really did a great job. I just couldn't pick a favorite. I have got to do some of those.

Carl,

I dipped a Viva paper towel and wiped it on. The shine didn't really come up until I ran it through my 3 wheel buffer.

outstanding job. How is the spar holding up to daily use?

So far, so good. I made one about a year ago & gave it to a neighbor to "field test". (I'd have done it myself, but would require shaving my beard of 35 years.)

After a year of daily use, it still looks like new.
