The Sixth Day Of Weckoning is upon us
Somehow, my boar has redeveloped a bit of funk and that's after 61 uses. I'm a bit surprised and at a loss why that could be.
I had broken this brush in during last year's Inaugural Raw Hoggin' challenge and it's an odd brush. I widened the Colin Ferrule just enough to barely fit the 26 mm unbleached Zenith knot, and if l I've set it rather low, so it's got the strongest backbone of all my brushes. Combined with the soft Zenith tips, this makes for a unique and delightful brush. I hope the funk goes away again soon.
#Monthofweckoning
The brush is on vacation in a foreign country. I don't find it surprising that it would release the pig.
Good point I hadn't considered ๐
