I was casually looking for a handle that would be able to accept a 24mm boar knot from TGN when I stumbled
across a listing for 6 knots on the Bay. I figured, "what the heck", and put a bid in.
Naturally, the smart thing to do would be to simply wait until the handles show up here. Then I can clean them out,
take some measurements, and assess what I have. Then I can safely order some knots accordingly.
The catch is that the handles may take up to 3 weeks to get here (notice I am in Cananda). Then the order from TGN
can take another 2 weeks to arrive. So I may have to wait till early 2016 to complete the brushes (or maybe just late June of 2011).
If I could order the knots sooner, that would half the time I have to wait for shipping.
I assume I will have to increase the diameter of the holes a little, just not sure how much they can safely be widened.
Ideally I was hoping that this lot would supply me with handles to fit the following knots.
take a 22mm)? As a bonus, is there a handle that you think would safely accept a 26mm knot with a little widening?
