Blending Dubbing - Coffee Grinder

[Wildfisher]

I have seen this suggested by Bob Wyatt and also by .D. on this forum. Blending dubbing is a real pain, so I bought a cheap coffee spice grinder like  this  one

It makes a better job that you could ever do by hand and is quick enough to blend a season?s worth dubbing in a few minutes.

I too now recommend it.

Too  late, I've done enough to last most of the season, but if I remember (which most likely I won't) I'll do it next time.

Black and brown dyed squirrel fur.

Before.........




And after. About 3 seconds after............




Slight differences in exposure I didn't bother compensating for, but I hope you get the idea .

Works really well for blending very small amounts of high glint synthetics evenly with natural furs as well.
