Brush handles??

[ed4copies]

OK, so we decided we like 50mm and 39mm for the diameter of the rods. NOW, we have both.

What length should I be cutting these to accomodate you "makeup brush" and "shaving brush" guys.

PLEASE tell me your preference, for men and for women so I can make them available in the proper selection

Thanks!!!

Ed,

I will use 2" - 3" long for brushes. I prefer to work with 3" with both shaving and cosmetic brushes.

How about 6"?? Then you can cut to make 2 or 3 depending on YOUR choice??

The 39mm will work out to $2.50 to $3 an inch, for a reference number. The fancy patterns are at the "top end", the black marble and Alt ivory will be in the lower range.

Revised: 34 mm will be $2.50ish, 39mm about $3.50ish We are going to try using this for all the patterns, even though the cost is not really the same. We'll see how it goes!!

Ed, a 7" block would work better than a 6" block. With a 7" you could do 3- 2"+ blocks, or a few 2" stopper blanks and a 3" brush blank, or a variety of blocks and some scrap for pendants.
