Doesn't it feel good knowing you are protected? Moreover, doesn't it feel good that you are proactively taking measures to contain/end this awful pandemic (oops, that last sentence may belong in the Corona virus thread!)?

Maybe, I wasn't worried about it really, I still don't personally know anyone who's had it, and unless you have other issues it seems to rarely be fatal, much like the flu.

Good stuff, get some!

Wanted to do this ever since I saw one of these things, I thing she's gonna be a killer brush.

As received.

They had a problem keeping it together apparently, had been glued together several times with different glues,... lots of glue! I had to use a hole saw with the pilot removed to get the ferrule off. Had to do more work than I expected to make it look decent, all lettering had to go unfortunately.

And the result.
