Needing a heatresistant brush for soldering, and finding that they covered my needs in that regard as well, since i rarely need to work with softsolder anyway, was just an added boon.

The square ones does the job on flat surfaces, but not much good in tight corners.

Like the idea of being able to adjust the brush hairs as wanted for a specific job, thanks for sharing Jim !
Never given this subject much thought, since silicone baking brushes is so cheap, and have covered my needs until now.

Will certainly keep your idea in mind, as the need for a customised brush does arise at times.
It isnīt easy to change much besides number and length, on those relatively thick and widespread "hairs" in a baking brush.
Jan having them short with the shrink tube and round makes them so much more stiffer and more usable.
You've got no idea how many of the cheap sets ($4 for 10) of artists brushes I've ruined over the years!
I want to make a complete assortment for different uses tomorrow.

You taught me something new today Jim
I was impressed when I saw these Nick and have been meaning to make some for ages. I just wish I'd known about them years ago.

Great idea for a brush and worked well on tinning the metal.
What was the size of the Silicone strip?
Hi Carl, the thickness of the silicone was 1/32 and it ended up roughly 3" long.
I'll be making a few different tomorrow so I have an assortment on hand.

You won't believe just how well these work. I wished I'd had one of these years ago. No more burnt small paintbrushes and you can custom make any size of these you wanted, thick bristles, thin bristles, solid etc etc
A great bit of kit!
