They really did turn out nice Bro. And they look better in person. The ones you did for me turned out nice too. And when I say Bro I mean this is my Brother. He did a couple brushes for me at the same time, and I will post up pics when I find my camera. Thanks again Dan.
 
I see you reknotted a Van Der Hagen in there. I'm about to do one of those myself. Looking at the TGN 22mm Boar for a knot. Any tips on that one?

That one was very easy. All I did was twist on the old knot in the VDH and it came right out. It was hollow so it made the setting of the Omega knot simple. The omegas come with a Black cup already on the knots with a lip on the top. So just enlarge the opening to be bigger than the bottom of the knot, but smaller than the lip on the top of the knot and it will slide right in. I just took my Die Grinder and opened the opening a little and it was done.
 
Very nice set of work there wireburner! Hadn't seen a Lord Chesterfield before, looks good, might need to keep an eye out for one.

The Chesterfield is a keeper for sure. When I first got it I thought the bottom was black. It wasn't until after a half hour or so of cleaning that I realized it had that cool green marbled bottom.
