Weddings and Shaving and Groomsmen gifts: Badger to the Rescue

We have been working lickety split on a groomsmen gifts for a wonderful wedding in October. 

Our groom chose the style he liked and we made ten.  In the photo below we were dry fitting some of the badger knots. 

 

The Groom chose the font and style for the engraving and we have finally got to the finishing phases.  Here they are in the drying oven.  An oven light works beautifully to raise the temperature to about 90F.  That way there is air movement out of the oven into the kitchen and the marine varnish dries without the fear of lint in the finish.  Lint in the finish is the bane of my life. 

 

The next photos will be the brush with the knot sets and ready to go to the groom for the groomsmen presents.
