My second Rubberset 400-3
Hello friends. On this restoration I am going to post pictures along the months the restoration process lasts. Step by step.
This brush is my second Rubberset 400-3.

Well, here we go. Starting the work. After cutting the knot, I couldn't unscrew the ferrule even with hot water. Then, drilling it.

After drilling, hot water did the job, A couple baths just the ferrule, 80ºC water, and the ferrule was free to unscrew. Then, cleaning all the handle with care. A bit of metal polish.
