I'm looking to make some shaving brushes and would like to get some suitable acrylic blanks but can't find anything in UK. Can anyone point me in the right direction (don't really want to go down the route of making them)

Hi ian
A few places keep them including Vince at The Turners Workshop.
Can't see any on his website but have regularly seen them when I've visited. Might be worth a phone call or dropping him an email .
