Really nice Simpson collection. I wonder how long did it take to get to this point?
Simpson have a loyal following here.
You were asking if there was a cure for BAD...yup, its RAD...LOL...Gets you away from buying brushes...Nice pic by the way!It's called BAD. But catching a little RAD too.
No way I have one of everything ever made. That would be absolutely large. Simpson alone would cover half that mark if you included the multiple derivatives in different grades. Simpson would be the one I have the most of. Some of the brushes seen in this pic I don't have now like the Tortoise Wee Scot and the T3 Manchurian in whatever rod material (Strawberry?) it was. It's possible to amass quite a collection.

I am not worthy...holy smokes... Beautiful by the way and of course I was kidding about having one of everything. I had one boar, blinked and I had ten brushes, so I can certainly see how you can amass such a fine assortment.
No problem...LOL.No problem Somnos. I realize now that you didn't mean that, but sometimes I take things a bit too literally. lol
It's been forever since I actually took the time to count how many I have. 176. I just about have no room left in my cabinet to hold any new additions. Guess I would if I got rid of soaps, creams, and colognes...

Sorry, just took the time to read the second line of your post.
Once I got to the "176" part, pretty much got hooked to that.
I have so many that I can't use any of them as much as I'd like to. I can't imagine how you'd get around to using 176. But hats off to your BAD. I salute you sir.No problem. I can understand that. I do have a storage cabinet I used to store other things, but my brushes took over and kicked out the previous residents. lol

A boar, a synth and a badger.
I sympathize with you on the pain of letting go. I've never been able to thin the herd .You want to know how I get around to using 176? I don't.
I'm serious. Of that number I have a good amount I've never used once. Some were bought used and I've never used it once, and some are brand new and never used. Got a good number there. The number will decrease in time. Getting rid of any is like pulling a finger nail, and I only have 10 on my hand, and 8 toe nails. So not a lot of room to work with there. lol
