One of my favorite brushes has been well used (as you can see from the photo).
I was lucky enough to have a fellow on here fabricate me a replacement handle out of acrylic.
i won't say who made it, but I can give you his initials (RV......) When I get home, I'm going to finish knocking out the old knot & set it in the new handle. More pic's to follow....

Looks nice Tim.
I got a chance to hold the new RV 1305 handle today and must say, it is a beauty.
Keep us posted on the progress

That new one is spot on! Maybe even a little nicer with the new collar line up a bit more.

It's all good, even when it's not.

well loved or it's constantly getting caught in the giant moustache and he's dropping it Originally Posted by rockviper
either way, the transplant looks awesome....looks even shinier in the transplant pic, I have a feeling the penman polished it up even more.
Well Done Tim.
