Cast and Turn - Start-to-Finish - Phantom Swirl Shaving Brush Handle

My first start-to-finish casting and turning video. See me cast a phantom swirl blank with polyester resin and then turn it on the lathe into a shaving brush handle.

That thing is huge

[@VTHokies1987]

Enjoying your videos. Thanks for the fun!

[@FrickWerkz]

Very glad you like them, more to come!

Please tell me what the name of the tool that expands in the hole of the handle. I have a 5" chuck. But that is the last piece I need for my lathe and I cant figure out whats it's called. Is it just a smaller chuck? What are the measurements?

[@michaelnelson969]

Hi, are you selling any custom Handles? I like your work, however when I click on the ebay listings, there are none posted. Do you have a website? Is there a waitlist? How do I get one of these masterpieces!?

[@FrickWerkz]

I am working on these as a hobby and side hustle right now and with work-at-home for my main job I am trying to find time to make them. I sell any that I list on eBay within a day or so each time.

[@thehusband12]

what are the measurements of the finished handle?

[@FrickWerkz]

4 1/8" tall, 1 3/4" at its widest, its a bigger one

Not to be safety police but bare feet ?.Fantastic looking piece

[@FrickWerkz]

Not be grammar police but I saw you edited your posting - I assure you they are not "bear" feet though they are big and ugly.And yeah, not the ideal shop attire - but I didn't have my long sleeves on and did have my full face shield on.

Bloody spellchecker, I really like the effect of the ghosting 👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@FrickWerkz]

Thanks, it is one of my favorite techniques on the brush blanks.

Could this work for slim line pen blank's ?

[@FrickWerkz]

I would think so with a vertical mold for the blanks you can do all kinds of layers in it. Don't know about the transparent nature of the blank type with a pen tube, would have to paint the inside or have a colored tube.
