Hi Huck. Hit and miss on using CA. Depends on the finish I'm going for and/or condition as well as material of the handle.Beautiful work! Love the hammered copper etc...a very nice and clever restoration. Do you use CA for your finishes?
Thank you sir!Incredible work, @FreddieP318ti! Thanks for sharing all the photos. I'm amazed with the transformations!
Finished up a few more. The original ferrules on the 2 were unable to be used so I did one in aluminum and the other in bass. Brass one is not for sale.
I wanted to keep the twine wrapped brush as original as possible. I removed the poly, making sure not to hurt the finish and applied a fresh coat to protect. The twine is adhered to the ferrule but I did clean it. The stains are from the original adhesive and could not be removed. The metal underneath is sound with no rust and I coated the inside to help prevent before setting the 20mm knot.
The hammered aluminum handle will hold a 26mm knot.

Thanks bro!I love the work you do on these.
Yes I did. My bad!They look incredible. I think you meant Ever-Ready 200 for the one with the Gelousy knot though.
I'll forgive you this time.Yes I did. My bad!
