The 2012 B&B LE Brush. Discussion thread.

[Rudy Vey]

Now that the official waiting process has begun, I only have one question:

Where's my brush?

It is in the making!! Today I drilled and tapped the first 10, hopefully tomorrow I do some more and then some turning....

Love the pictures that Scott posted. Never realized how much was involved or that you do the handles by hand! Can't wait to get mine.

All my handles are always turned by myself by hand. I would never use a copy-attachment or any other means of automation. That is for me all hand made. I may post some pictures myself in the next days of the progress I am making.
Most all handles of the big name companies are not longer hand turned, they come out of automated machining centers.

Am I too late to get one?

[ackvil]

Rudy, you do beautiful work. My 2011 B&B brush is great and I can't wait to get the new one.

Sorry, all gone. Check BST late summer or early autumn for one some one doesn't want. But you'll have to be quick. There's some fool here who likes to grab all the LEs up. Can't remember his name.

Very Quick indeed,.... seems I remember, lives someplace in PA.

About the only AD I haven't acquired yet is SBAD as I only have two at the moment. I'm looking forward to my 1st RV brush. And the fact that Rudy is handcrafting 100 of these brushes blows my mind. Has to be a labor of love.

Man, I am so looking forward to this...

If I'm not mistaken, my 2012 LE will be the only one of its kind in Germany!

*basks in the comforting glow of elitism*

*g*

Almost... if it makes you feal better mine will leave Germany in 2013 with me!

I can live with that.

Anyway, yours will be extraterritorial, so to speak...

Edit: I just realized that this was my thousandth post. How fitting that it concerns this lovely brush!

... but of course if one of you has the D01 and the other has a TGN ... then you are both unique right out of the gate.

[tattewell]

Mines a TGN... D01 was too rich for SWMBO after buying a Simpson Rover and Simpson Major...

Mine's a TGN, too.

[tattewell]

Great minds and all...

See, I get all idle and non-participatory on this forum, and miss out on things like this. Well done, Rudy!

Indeed. That's how I've missed several B&B LE Brushes... I just lucked across this one this year.

I just realized that one of my posts here has earned me a custom title (Well, half a custom title, actually). And a pretty brilliant one as well.

Thanks to the mod who thought of it!
