    Default Ox-hair brush supply?

    Is there an Australian source for ox-hair brushes which are recommended for applying shellac? Any information will be much appreciated.

    The only place I have seen Ox hair brushes is Gramercy Tools: http://www.toolsforworkingwood.com/Merchant/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=toolshop&Product_Code=GT-SHEBRU.XX (although I haven't looked at the link above by Steve).

    Recommended by Neil when I had a chat with him at the Sydney show.

    With the way the AU$ is at the moment, even if they were available in Australia you would still get them cheaper from the USA.

    This little video of a brush being made is definitely well worth a look. Click Here
