Ohio brush company

OK, good to know. The difference between good and bad brushes is night and day.

I remember how you explained that a brush will last longer on a 1 HP,

Most of my clients teach it. DAMHIKT. OK, I'm going back to sleep.

You need a highly paid (hah!) outside salesman to handle that for you, sir. (raises hand)

I picked up a six-pack of so-called wire brushes from HF a year ago and both the brass and steel brush wires bent over 90 degrees within the first minute of use, staying that way after I took the pressure off. They're absolute s*it. Cheap import cup brushes have forced me to wear heavy jacket (for sleeves), full face shield, and muffs (to keep the wires out of my earlobes) when I use them. Now that I have a Januwine Ohio Brush cup brush, I can go back to working without all that super hot protective gear again. It doesn't instantly shed wire at me. (Face shield and eyeglasses remain, though.)

IOW, there is an extreme difference in brush wire that you can spot before buying a brush. Bend it. If it stays bent (untempered), run away. You make good chit, Tawm. People don't run away from your brushes.

Why is that, Tom? Don't they rely on you, too? And doesn't the hardware market make up some of the sales (or become a higher percent of the sales) when the food service is slow for a time?

My neighbors across the street are an 80 year old man and 50-something daughter. (His wife died a few years ago) They go out to eat for all lunches and dinners, 365 days a year. It appears that neither of them knows how to boil an egg, and neither is willing to learn. Go figure.

-- Some days, it's not even worth chewing through the restraints.

I can't compete with the Spanish Prison System for the hardware quality do-it-yourself market. They are heavily government subsidized, use s*it material and get past US labeling laws.

You missed the zipped file of bullet casting stuff I sent you. Also sent it to the contact at the factory, but you must not have gotten that either. It's been a few weeks.

I bought five Osborn knotted cup brushes, thinking that cup brushes didn't last long. At that point I'd gone through several cheap cup brushes on a single job. The first Osborn brush lasted me three years. I'm now onto the second.
