February 2018 30 Day Rule/Focus Pix & Discussion

I used to shoot grouse plucking at wild plums from inside the front door. My wife used to get SO pissed, but she ate on every last one of them.

 

In Alabama, I shot a doe while seated in a lawn chair on a backyard deck at a friend's farm. He kept a rifle near both doors.

 

Friday February 9 - Fat Friday


Delta Echoed Gillette Fatboy on 4 / vintage Gillette Platinum Plus (? )
Semogue Owners Club cherrywood boar brush
Kent / MWF in beechwood tub
Alum and Lucky Tiger

I dampened rather than soaked the boar brush then gradually trickled water onto the puck as I loaded from it. I then face lathered the result and got two good slick passes out of it. The photo shows the brush after I was finished shaving. It maintained better backbone today than it does when I soak it. Maybe that's the key to this Semogue boar ... Or maybe I just need to replace the knot with a Tuxedo...

Anyway it was a good shave to lead the way into the weekend.

 

That us very cool Charlie, thank you for sharing it!

I tend to grate mine i to a tin, but it works great as a stick also.

 

Just show her what it costs. Then she couldn’t care less.

 

I remember a time when I honestly, for the very life of me, could not see the appeal in owning more than one brush. ROTFL!

 

Always look f9r him on Friday’s.

 

Bloomed and perfect.

 

Yeah, it really is.

 

Any day the cartel sends a package is a good day!

 

Great set up, Dan!

 

Very cool!

 

Looks like a nice Friday shave, Bruce!

 

What a haul, Perry! Crappy reason to inherit a den, but it will be well loved.

 

Wonderful lineup. Hope the weather gets a little better for you.

Great lineup. I really like the looks of the beachwood tub.

 

Ah... thank you? I think? What the heck is a Toady?

Thanks, Bruce!

I really like your filtered pictures, Jim!

Clint, you're the Master of the Insect-Free Outdoor Photo. Well-done!

Nice set-up, Perry! Have a nice weekend!

Nice razor & brush, Mark!

There's the little Shaver! Happy Friday!

Maybe not the Ivory Look but it appears to be the Sterile Look. Great picture, Bruce!

@RyX & @NCoxSTL One of my major studies in college was political science. I was particularly fascinated with different political doctrines, theorists, and practitioners: Marxism-Leninism, Maoism, John Locke, Machiavelli, Thomas Paine, James Madison & Thomas Jefferson and so on.

I didn't see this one coming at all... the birth of Nealogism. Fascinating! I must know more.

That is a wonderful collection, Perry. The best part is the collection stays in the family!

Good stuff, Charlie. I'm going to order one of those SRX razors.

Still admiring that Fatboy, John! Happy weekend!

Thanks, Jim!

Thanks, Clint! It'll be cold this weekend, but the sun at least should be out. That helps.

 

Thank you Dan. The mosquitos will be out in force soon enough.

 

Awesome, Dan! I believe you will have fun and get some great shaves with it.

Thank you, Dan!
