Unlikely to break as long as you're careful. I use a Dremel rotary tool with a sanding drum and it makes easy work of enlarging brush handle holes. You could do the same by hand with a dowel and sandpaper, but it would take quite a bit longer.

+1 for the dremel and a sanding drum attachement. works like a charm.

I am trying to restore a ever-ready 200t. It is not in the best condition. The top of the handle is a bit warped, but it will still work out I believe.

Knot Type: Horse Hair
Knot Size: 20mm

I am getting a 20mm silver tip from Larry. I can not wait.

Here is mine. 500C model with its crimson and marbled base. By the way it has still original badger knot.

That is absolutely one of the best looking brushes I've had the pleasure of viewing. Congratulations on being the owner of such a work of art! May I ask where you found that beauty?

My Ever Readys (left to right):

150 with 20mm Whipped Dog silvertip knot set at 50mm
300PBT with 18mm Golden Nib silvertip grade A knot set at 48mm (my first restore, which I posted earlier)
300PBT with 18mm Savile Row silvertip knot taken from an SR3118. Corners rounded just a tiny bit. This is my current favorite brush. My father had a 300PBT when I was a little guy, so I have very fond memories of that, and the Savile Row 18mm silvertip is my favorite knot.
