On a recent trip to Harbor Freight, I picked up a package of Pipe Cleaners, Part #95947. I think it cost about $8, before their perpetual 20% discount. The package contains 10 all-metal brushes, 5 brass and 5 stainless steel. The brushes are about 4" long with a 7" handle. They are in diameters from 1/4" to 1/2" and they are very sturdy. I glue up blanks with CA,Gorilla and epoxy, depending on the blank. I usually need to clean out the tube after the glue up, which can be tedious and time consuming for me. These brushes do one heck of a job cleaning dried glue out of the tube. I use the brass brush if the mess i made is a minor one, but yesterday, my epoxy glue up didn't go well, leaving me a mess to deal with today. The 3/8" SS brush made short work of cleaning out the dried epoxy leaving a pristine tube.
