    Thanks Charlie. I followed @clint64 method and put some of the menthol crystals you sent me a couple of years ago in the Booster Iced Lime and let it sit over night. Worked very well.

    Geez, turn your back on this thread for a few hours and there are over 100 posts to wade through when you come back...

    Yes, I bit. I guess I really NEED the Simpsons Chubby 2 Synthetic and the Kent BK12 now (aka the Soap Destroyer and the Soap Aircraft Carrier). Otherwise I will be using this Cella for life...

    Good to uhmm see you, Fuzzy. Although we didn't really need to be given a chance to see if your nickname applied south of the border too...

    Are you going to pull up a chair and stay awhile? We've missed you around here...

    Edit: A few pages further on and I see you are sticking around to make comments. Good!

    A big shout out and thanks to @Douglas Carey! I received a puck of Oleo Soapworks El Caballero shave soap from Doug today. It smells fantastic. The website describes the scent as "a bridge between Bay Rum and gentleman's cologne. Scent notes are bergamot, basil leaf, musk, oak moss, white patchouli, amber and bay rum."

    Thank you, Doug! It's on deck for Tuesday morning's shave. :happy088:

    Thank you, Charlie! Igor is a razor designed and made by our own @twhite. It is an adjustable SE with a cam system to make it more or less aggressive. It isn't much movement, but it makes a difference. I have it for a few days on a pass around, and I can tell you it is a great shaver!

    Great picture, Adam! Just about like every Santa picture we have: at least one child is crying.
