suede brush for carving clean up

[JimmieJames]

I found an old copper wire suede brush in the barn and decided to use it for cleaning up carvings one day and found it works very well ,so well I just had to order some more because I used it to death.. Just thought I would let people know and thank everyone for there posts and help. Here is the link to the suede brush I just ordered the other day (had a rough time finding a wire one)I have already got them and used it and they work just as good as the one I found in the barn..

You need to be a little careful on soft wood and delicate carvings that chip easily. I have been using it on pine with no problems though..

Good tip another thing I use is just a brass brush I picked up at the sporting goods store for cleaning golf clubs. After all, those golfers would not want to ruin one of their clubs.

I got mine from True Value Hardware, I've been using them for cleaning up my wood turnings.
