Budgeroo Burl and Finest Badger

[Alshain]

Been at home sick today and decided to try turning a brush with ca glue finish. Sanded to 12000 and decided I didn't want it quite that shiny... Finished at 3200.

A different view of the burl.

The timber was from The Timber Joint.

Beautiful! I made a knife/firestarter combo a while back with scales that perfectly matches your brush handle. I sold it within 24 hours of finishing the sheath and unfortunately can't find the photo I thought I took of it. Can I ask where you got the knot, please?

 

[Alshain]

Thanks, I have a Japanese kitchen knife waiting for some scales of the same timber, oh if only I didn't work >.<

The knot was from The Golden Nib in the US.

Cheers, Alshain

Thanks mate! Yeah, I waited all my life to retire so I could do all those things I had always wanted to do..... then my heart intervened!

Hey @Alshain, any interest in doing custom work? I'd be very interested.

@Hocky27 Not at the moment sorry. I'm flat out with a new job this year and no spare time
