Absolutely mint custom brushes made by @jimjo1031 for me (Mets) and one for my son (Yanks). (Allegiances skip with each generation ya know) Anyway, a post Xmas self gift for us. Absolutely beautiful! Thanks Jim!
This came yesterday, but I just retrieved it from the mail today. I've been wanting one of these for a long time. Now it is here.
Went to Salvation Army looking for a work jacket (my weekend job involves spending time in a 20° freezer). Found a '60s MacGregor Scotset jacket, Harrington style, my size, completely lined with zip out fleece. Originally black, faded to dark gray and a little ragged at cuffs and pockets but looks warm as toast. Tag said $8.99, way too much for the shape it's in; manager let me have it for a buck. It's in the washer now. She threw in an American flag pin that was sitting by the register. Also today got from Amazon the Zebra F-701 ballpoint all-steel pen to match my trusty all-steel M-701 pencil.
Just realized they sell them as a set, if anyone's interested. Great writing utensils. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0771XVCGK/?tag=thshde-20
Mail Call:- Today I received two GEM Micromatic Open Comb also the Clog-Pruf should arrived at my front door hopefully this Friday according to the postage tracking details. I'm going to put the GEM Micromatic Open Comb on hold first, because I wanted to start using the GEM Micromatic Clog-Pruf to work my way up the aggressive shave feel since I enjoy the experience of the Bullet Tip
SWEET!! Gem MMOC and Clog Pruf are two of my absolute favorites. Wickedly efficient and capable of producing spectacular results when used properly. Have fun with 'em!
I got a little nervous when I was down to my sampler sprayers of Clubman and Special Reserves, so picked up a 12.5 oz of Clubman an two 6 oz of Special Reserves. Some may call it over kill, I call it precautionary.
