hi, i am looking for all the people/places that make custom brushes. on here as well as any other sites

Check out B&B member Rudy Vey. He's a brush maker that I have worked with, and I highly recommend both his work and the man himself. Great guy, great work!

Shavemac makes custom brushes. And I've heard of people getting custom Vie-Longs.

Bob Farvour deserves my warmest recommendations.

Lee Sabini makes luxury, custom Morris & Forndran brushes.

Our vendor and hobbyist forums are full of custom brushmakers who'd be happy to work with you, plus great images of their work. Definitely worth checking out to get some ideas.

really anyone can make a custom handle...Drill a 1" hole in anything and drop a 24mm knot into it (golf ball, wrench socket, etc.) haha!

the golden nib does handles as well as knots and you can call them and order a custom knot,and i think theyll do a handle as well

**beginish** · 12-05-2011, 10:08 AM

Rod Neep does them as well.

Glenn Ey, Australia. Amazing work. I have two of his brushes from Red Mallee Burl. He is doing work mostly in resin now, by custom order. Shoot me a pm if you want his E-mail address. B

I have every knot from TGN in personally restored handles - wouldn't trade them for the world. Fabulous knots that compete with the Rooney's and Simpson's.

All good vendors listed. +1 though on Rudy.

King1976 made me a 18mm TGN knot in a cocobolo handle that's my pride and joy. Great guy to deal with.

I've purchased a few brushes from Rod and have always been pleased with both the quality and service.

Cooncat Bob makesum.

Rudy Vey & deruitem both make fine Brushes & both are B&B Members. I have a RV with a Horse knot (I supplied the knot) and just bought a Boar from deruitem which is a nice and dense 50/24, I'm getting ready to do an initial lather tonight.
