We have a Maderite 23 that originally had a nylon knot. This was the hardest knot to get out so far in my limited experience. I cut the knot out of the Lovgren & Daughter brush I won here on B&B. I added 4 or 5 nickels in the base for weight. The other (Everready 100t )was my first restore attempt. Robbed the knot from a Semogue 1460 boar, this is my favorite face lathering brush.

I like the picture behind the green and white one.
Your third picture got swapped with something else though I think.
Good job!

There wasn't supposed to be a 3rd pic. That is a Dali painting in the Cleveland art museum.
Thanks for the kind words everybody, I've had plenty of inspiration from this subforum!

Very nice! For some reason I've always liked the ER 100T.
Nice work, they look good.
Great job. I've removed some knots that have left me shaking my head. I swear some had some kind of NASA heat shield epoxy to hold the knot. 
love that vintage style, great restorations !
Nice restores, a ER 100T is my next re-knot, I like the simple classic design, both looks good.
Alright I give @TobyC the avatar of the year award! That's the only television I was ever a huge fan of, and always made sure I was home to watch it.
Thanks man!

I liked the 100t a lot more after I rounded off the sharp shoulder line. It was a little scary cutting the knot out of the Lovgren & Daughter brush, thankfully it came out pretty easily.
