Troy Tools Custom Brush Handles

[Nanook]

Chameleon coated brush added to my personal den.

Now that's a stunner!

Was trying to achieve a classic Nebula look with this one. It seems coloured resin easily trumps clear resin as it sinks through the mold. It still has a transparency allowing vision into the interior in places.
I have a few blanks poured recently which are a variation on this theme, so we'll see how they come out soon.
This one is pictured with a 26mm 2 band badger bulb. A pretty big handle made from the big square mold.

Not too keen on this weird color

It might just be me but I'm getting some Hendrix vibes from this one as very "Purple Haze" themed and extra nice!

I think @StratMan has first dibs on that name with an earlier TroyCraft brush.

I think you have nailed it @TroyTools. I am not a big fan of pinks and purples but not suffering from Rhodophobia like @SpeedyPC (even have a few pink shirts) nor see through handles where you can see the base of the knot. I think you have mastered both the colour combination and right amount of transparency to make a stunningly beautiful handle and if Purple Haze is taken how about:

Turned my attention back to brush handles after spending heaps of time turning a lot of wood taking up valuable space in my workshop. Still heaps of wood left though.

26mm

My wife was going to send you photos of mine to add to your facebook page if you wanted to. I'm not sure if she did or not as I don't have facebook. I did once but got sick of all the old school friends sending me crap for some imaginary farm that everybody but me had

@TroyTools as I'm not registered via Facebook, because, I don't trust facebook.

However, you can also expand your wet shaving brushes via https://www.etsy.com/au/

PS. I'm thinking about ordering my handle and knot of choice from you, because, I don't have access to facebook to see more details of your work, and would be nice to include your business via Etsy for those who don't like facebook.
