Freddie's restoration & custom brush thread

Just finished up this little Ever-Ready 100 for a customer. Brush belonged to their grandfather and will be a gift to their uncle. Something about the family heirlooms just have a special place in my heart. They opted to not have the larger dents and dings filled to help keep it as they remember. I opened it to 22mm per request and they opted for synthetic from Maggards. Glad to see this one staying in the family and can be used for more years to come!

Amazing restoration; love these old EverReady brushes

Freddie, I love the old Ever-Ready brush handles and have one that I found on eBay, I believe. A friend restored it for me quite a few years ago and it remains a favorite brush.  Your restoration work is beautiful and, as you suggested, made even more special because it is "staying in the family."  Again, just a great job.

Freddy DanLaw Thank you both for the kind words and for continuing to follow my thread. It's much appreciated!

Between work, getting my jeep back on tbe road, and a kitchen remodeled, I haven't had much time to work on handles. Have had this Rubberset 400-4 in the works off and on for a few weeks and finally took a moment to finish it. Will post in tbe BST if anyone is interested.

gorgeous as always
