I was hoping to find unusual coloring underneath the chocolatey outer coating. Figured it was worth a shot for a few bucks. Nah. Do you think it is/was an ER 100?
I was hoping to reveal a stunning coloration and useable handle under the chocolatey coating, but a bit of sanding with 200 grit revealed neither. Eh, for $3 it was worth a shot.
I have my own "Yeah. Nah." Picked up a brush that I thought was brown/butterscotch. Removed the knot and went it at with polishing compound. As I was cleaning it, what was coming off the brush was a very heavy brownish-yellow film. Guess a former owner was a heavy smoker. Turns out the handle is a not-so-pretty grey/yellow.
Yeah, Nah. OK but it sure was fun looking. Wasn't it. I'm thinking both of them are kind of interesting anyway. Might look good with a good knot in them. Just a thought.
