Glass bristle brushes

In addition to Roisin Miles' posting (Conservation DistList
Instance: 19:14 Saturday, September 10, 2005) about suppliers of
string bound glass bristled brushes: after some difficulty sourcing
these I found some in the catalogue of

    Squires Model and Craft Tools
    100 London Road
    Bognor Regis
    West Sussex PO21 1DD
    +44 1243 842424

A 10mm diameter brush costs UKP5.50, while a 17mm one costs UKP6.50.

This catalogue, although mainly intended for model makers, contains
many other tools and supplies which would be useful to conservators.
