| Knots arrive from Virginia Sheng, China. |
After the knots arrived I got to work and widened the holes to about 26mm and deepened the holes to about 14mm. The next four pictures are the JR11 and JR30RS after their dry fitting.

I used a clear silicone to set the knots. After setting the knots, they will cure for 24 hours before I perform their first test lather.

These are the silicones that I have used for my knots. The one on the left is white and the right one is clear. I used the clear one on these knots .
Is that just regular silicone for eg. a bathroom fixture etc?
ReplyDeleteYes, it is. I edited the post and put a picture in of the silicone I have used in the past and the one I used for these two brushes.
DeleteVery nice! I like the concept much more than Epoxy.
DeleteI haven't drilled out the old handle for the WD Synt., but given the amount of epoxy I glued the old knot with, I know I'm in for some work.
I am looking forward to seeing the results. That WD synthetic is a very nice knot.
