This swinging action made by the spring also helps the hair to come to a very shaφ point after the centrifugal force has been activated on to the brush tip. This is a major advantage to the artist, this action also prevents the artist from constantly having to wipe the brush tip to remove excess moisture, this wiping action 15. destroys the delicate hair that the brush tips are made from. Industrial Application The spring-activated artist brush has more features combined into the invention This being the removable Anterior screw on sleeve.
