Re: DB Tups
Ruard,
Thank you for posting about dubbing brushes. I have been interested in making for myself a small block (like yours) to make my own dubbing brushes. Yours look good! Could you post some photographs of your block? It will help me to create my own!
Did you have any trouble with the copper wire wanting to break? Too many twist?
Many thanks to you,
Dougsden

Fish when you can, not when you should! Anything short of this is just a disaster.

Hi dougsden here they are:
The blok is 15x7x5 cm
The tool to turn the thread exist of a piece of iron and a pipe of copper (messing)
I use copper-wire of about 0.1mm (8 mills(?))
In the blok there are two nails without a head and three slits from a knife. Start with copper-wire in the slit around the nail on the head end and again in the slit and then in the slit on the other end. I hope it is clear for you.

Re: DB Tups
Ruard,
Yes, very clear indeed and I appreciate the photo's and the description! I really like the end product, the dubbing brushes themselves. Between you and Ray (letumgo), I am inspired to head to the workbench, get out the wire and fur, and start creating! Thanks Ruard! A fine job as always.
