Jayaruh #270 Completed

Jayaruh 270-272

I have to admit that I am getting lax in taking pictures of the making of my brushes. Case in point: Here are three that I did today, and these are the first pictures I have taken. I turned them, sanded them, stained them, and then took these pictures with dry fit knots. They still need to be finished and have the knots set, but this will give you an idea of what's up.

Jayaruh #271

Jayaruh #272

I have a boar knot from an Omega 48 brush. I think it would do well in the #270 handle.
