What are you waiting on to arrive...?

A new one will run you even more. I don't gamble, womanize, buy clothes; I drive a paid-for 2003 truck. I cut my own hair, (what's left of it); don't go out to eat very often. This is how I choose to spend my money. I also sell my gear to finance new purchases.
In other words, this is my hobby and I love it.

 

Wow, sound like your painting a picture of me except I grew up with a wonderful father that is very Dutch, Scottish and Irish. Which means, not only are we thrifty (to a fault). We like nice things, but say "that's too much to pay new ... I'll make it or buy second hand and fix it". It almost a disease.

I hope you realize I wouldn't want to you to think I was looking down or picking on you. If I find I nice used one, I'd be all over it, but generally get more satisfaction working on my stuff. I'm a hands on type of guy.

 

That is a beautiful brush Joseph!

 

No offense taken Keith. None whatsoever.

 

Thank you Andrew. I have my fingers crossed that it's not one of Lee's scritchy knots...

 

This!

 

Very nice!

 

He shoots!

He SCORES!!


And an early E2 to boot.

 

Wasn't sure about this one at first, but it does have potential, even with the inside gutted out. A 1 cent bid and $3.65 shipping, not bad..........

 

I saw one of those a while back that had been speckled with red and white paint. I thought paint it with a nice royal blue and put on a Gillette decal in either yellow or gold would look real sharp.

 

Paid more than I normally would for a Fatboy, but in the combo it was reasonable.


It comes with a cool mug and a sweet blue Made Rite brush.



Don't take much to please me. BTW it's an E2 (1959 Second Quarter)

Crows and Ravens are my favorite birds ... lots of personality.

 

I have that same brush @Linuxguile sent me a while back. Going to have to dig it out and restore that one soon.

 

I'm thinking a Tuxedo knot from Maggard's.

 

I'm not sure about mine. I was thinking about back to original because except for restoring some boars to original, I really haven't put badgers where they were . I just used mostly synthetics and a couple boars. Still thinking though.

 

I didn't know the Made Rite blue was badger.

 

You got me to find it..........

Why not add a Manchurian White badger knot from Elite Razor by Bob Quinn.

 

1949 superspeed w/ the cream dispenser. I got it for a good price, not high not low.

For me, it's the cost the stops me usually.

 

Waiting on a banged-up Aristocrat. It definitely has a bent safety bar which I hope I can straighten.
