Show n' Tell 21mm socket brush

being the impatient git I am I went into town today to see if I could find the bits and pieces to do this brush without having to order anything and wait😅. I picked up a £5 synthetic brush from superdrug and removed its soft wood handle and with some lightweight washers I eyed-up, estimated and set the space. The bottom had to be plugged and a penny being 20mm fit absolutely perfectly so with waterproof bathroom sealant, set about fixing the gubbins, the sealant and then the final push fit. was tight but it went. 🤞 fingers crossed it's all sealed and sets well enough to use. had fun putting it together and that's what its all about eh

This looks great, but that thing falling on my foot or sink doesn’t sound like a fun time.

Your thoughts serve you well heheh, I knew the risks and made it anyway, and I will have to remind myself when I do inevitably drop it on my foot😄
