Jayaruh #436

It has been a while since I have made a brush. I have been thinking about this one for quite a while. Yesterday it was nice, so, I got out there and did some cutting and gluing. Yes, this is an experimental handle. It is made with pieces of plywood glued together. After it was all glued up. I let it sit over night. So, today was a nice day, and I got out there and turned this handle. I stained it and finished with Minwax Polycrylic. I set it with a two-band badger knot that has been sitting here wanting a handle to live in.

 

 

Here it is all done.
