This Moar Boar of a sub member was loosing a lot of bristles. They were done with it and let me have it.
I was surprised how hard it is to cut off all the bristles of a boar knot!
It was so hard that I was convinced I was cutting into the glue bump and had finally figured out its shape:
But the actual glue came a few mm deeper.
I was worried at first that the tiny hand mill wouldn’t be up to the task and that I’d need to find a 32 mm Forstner bit and figure out a way to grip the handle strong enough to withstand the torque of the Forstner bit on a drill press without ruining it, but as it turns out, it was quite easy and quick to get the hole deep enough:
I’ve set the handle with a 30 mm Maggard Silvertip knot, and I’m looking forward to trying the most exclusive of all subbrooshes, the Moar Badger soon.
Oh really? Would you like to trade it for a synth of mine?
Yes, I stand by that offer 100%.
Truth be told, the reason why I don’t use it anymore is because it hurts to be reminded of the Reddit experiences that were great before everything went downhill with the API changes. Seeing the Reddit mascot on it pisses me off since it reminds me of a greedy asshole company, even though our subreddit used to be so cool. I know it’s a bit absurd, but it’s like continuing to use something your horrible Ex gifted you. 😅 You won’t even need to part ways with one of your synths for it, tbh I’d be really glad to get rid of it and find a happy new owner for it.
Thanks! I’ll gladly take you up on your offer! Please let me know how much I owe you in shipping!
If you don’t want a brush in exchange, can I gift you a software in exchange?
