    Here's a question... Is there much difference in performance between a 24mm and 26mm Yaqi 2 band badger brush?

    I say yes, to a degree. The 24’s are great brushes, the 26’s are entering “BRUSH” territory.

    The Feather SS is rapidly becoming my go to travel shaver, and the CRSW impressed me once again. This could easily become a soap that I would recommend to new shavers, because it is so easy to get a great lather, and it has a pretty wide window for water tolerance. It’s also quite stable, and you can get a thinner, slick, straight style lather out of it without worrying if it’s going to break on you. Good stuff.

    If I could on this forum I would cus you right now because all this makes me want to do is spend the extra money on a 26. Dang it!!!! LOL

    Great news. Just stay the course and you’ll be surprised at the progress you’ll make over 30 days.

    Like the whole 6- 10 dollars? Stick around, we can still tempt you into spending serious money.

    @Linuxguile just talked a guy into a late mortgage payment.

    Thanks, Buddy. I shave on the road now more than I get to at home, so I’ve taken to expanding my “travel” collection.

    Thank you Jason. In the beginning I didn’t like the initial scent of the Italian Citrus soap. I’ve grown to like the soap but I absolutely love the aftershave.

    RyX DoH!

    Shave of the day thread is dangerous if you are influenced by enabling. The 30 Day Crew is doubly so. While we strive to Focus or Rule limited number of products each month, you will get the nitty-gritty details about both software and hardware. Ask questions, develop your shopping list, and try to get the best service from your current gear. You could sign up for the NoBuy Club but that's usually for folks whose storage is already over flowing.

    So for Father’s Day, my daughter baked me 5 dozen butterscotch chip cookies. And whatever (I think it’s my mother in law’s) dough recipe she uses, they are seriously world class.

    Except now that my job has turned into almost solely office/pickup/hotel/restaurant, I have put on thirty pounds, (250 to 280), and have been making a serious effort to cut out the garbage, and work out some after work. Back down to 265 now.

    But in the last two days, I have eaten about 50 damn butterscotch cookies. 270 here we go again.
