Any (non-US) links to substantiate that claim? I'll stick with "mould" until then.That link is incorrect as it was always taught, at least here, that mold is a fungus and you mould bullets, metal, soap, etc. Verbiage with the "u". It is only recently that grammarists have surrendered to the idiots now running PC education and allowed ignorance to thrive by allowing people to spell however they "feel" thereby moulding idiots.

I forgot to publish the results of the experiment:I'm currently doing the same procedure for two boar brushes - a Semogue 620 (quite small - I call it piglet) and an Omega 49 (the big boar). Quite interesting so far - looking at the (combined) charts so far, the results won't be what I expected.
Temperature and humidity are the same as the last experiment - 25 degrees and normal
Excellent thread, just a sec while I hang my anorak up.I forgot to publish the results of the experiment:
Both boars dried at pretty much exactly the same rate, somewhere between the synthetic and the badger.
I now have more accurate scales (0.01g) and I can record temperature and humidity.
An early result is that other synthetics dry much quicker than the MÜHLE.
I'm planning to record more drying times at different temperatures and humidity and with the brush being fairly dry or quite wet to start with. I will report back in a year or two - longer if anyone donates an unloved or even shedding badger or horse.
I'm standing them up of course.Excellent thread, just a sec while I hang my anorak up.
Are you hanging the brushes to dry or standing them up?
Maybe do both with the same brush.
And...The hanging/standing experiment has been done
Hahaha.Why are they called stands if you hang the brush from them? They should be called brush-gallows.
... and it doesn't make a difference.And...
You've got better scales now, possible recount?... and it doesn't make a difference.
That wasn't done by me. If you read German - you can find the results here:You've got better scales now, possible recount?
