Gary Young said:Shouldn't say it as Vulfix wouldn't be happy but you only need to buy a Duke, Chubby and Wee Scot and you have the best Simpson brushes. If you have those wtaht do you need any others for?!?!?
Gary Young said:Bit of inside knowledge for you now though concerning the Wee Scot. As you probably know Great Uncle Alex was Scottish (half my family tree is of course!) but this was not the full reason for the name. My grandmother's madien name was Scot - all ties in nicely!

You made a brush out of Pigcat? I bet I know which part he let you use for the bristles! :lol:

Thanks for sharing your family history with us. It is much apreciated.
Perhaps you answered this previously, but you said something like 'the wee scot is the only brush you really need'. Can you shed any light upon why it was this particular brush that Mr. Simpson chose to put his signature on?
Again, thanks for returning to the forum and taking time from your schedule to answer our questions.
antdad said:Hi Gary. How did the brush makers at Simpson accurately decide on the amount of hair to be used for each model of brush assuming that the Chubby/Polo models are the dearest because they are so densely packed and the other smaller models less so?
Was the density of each model predetermined by weight of hair or did the brush maker just use his own skill and judgement every time?
Thanks for your time.
