Is there an Australian source for ox-hair brushes which are recommended for applying shellac? Any information will be much appreciated.

Badger bristle brushed are available from Goods & Chattels (http://www.goodsandchattels.com/)
I use them with great success.
Cheers

The only place I have seen Ox hair brushes is Gramercy Tools: http://www.toolsforworkingwood.com/Merchant/merchant.mvc? (http://www.toolsforworkingwood.com/Merchant/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=toolshop&Product_Code=GT-SHEBRU.XX)Screen=PROD&Store_Code=toolshop&Product_Code=GT-SHEBRU.XX (http://www.toolsforworkingwood.com/Merchant/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=toolshop&Product_Code=GT-SHEBRU.XX) (although I haven't looked at the link above by Steve).
Recommended by Neil when I had a chat with him at the Sydney show.

With the way the AU$ is at the moment, even if they were available in Australia you would still get them cheaper from the USA.
This little video of a brush being made is definitely well worth a look. Click Here (http://www.toolsforworkingwood.com/extra/images/brush/MakeAbrushShortX.mov)
