An epic shaving brush for the Star Wars fan

[Darkbulb]

Been following Localgentshavingco over on Instagram where he shows off the brush handles he makes by hand. Some really neat ones like these ones for instance;

The he created something that made the cool-meter rise.
First some progress photos showing him apparently sanding and working on this thing for hours:

The final result is pretty sweet

I don't know the guy, just follow his brush handle making on Instagram.

That is pretty neat, it must be cast. I bet Disney don't know about it.

I assume so as well. His instagram is Localgentshavingco and he does post some additional information about the brushes he makes. Looks fun though and yeah, I kinda doubt Disney is in the loop

I'll have a look, I'm always interested in how makers make!

Robert was telling me about these. Very cool indeed. Nice guy to boot.

Ah! He's the other guy who named a brush 'Lugosi'. Sterling workmanship.

Very cool...now if a light sabre could be produced (albeit shorter) with boar at one end with badger at the other.....

It is casted in acrylic then about 10 hours of hand sanding, polishing and finishing work.

Could do a Darth Maul Saber in that fashion. Would be a fun project!
