Good job Danny! I'm all for repurposed items. This evening I brought together a couple components that fall into the "used in a manner other than intended by the original maker" division. I've been viewing rubber stamp carousels on Etsy for more than a year. Yesterday I visited an antique shop, found one of the booths had a 50% sale, and scored an Achilles brand unit. Stopped by Harbor Freight today and picked up some 1/4" heat shrink tubing to protect the finish on my brushes..
Voila! ("Whala" for 'Mericans)

Wow! Three days already? I feel like it's just been a minute but I'm still here. After keeping the route through Cartel HQ secure for the Yakuza boss @Bama Samurai and then working two very long days and adding some hours today I looked pretty rough. Three days without a shave plus about 4 weeks with no head shave. It was time to put things back in order tonight. With that much hair on my head a pain stick was the only smart option. I chose the CJB and took care of that easily and smoothly. As for Stirling September - I finally remembered to get some Carbon blades from CVS and put one in the 1914. Nice little shave that did an outstanding job against three days growth. Stirling Ozark Mountain, one of my faves, was quickly and easily turned into lather by the JR54. No blood anywhere above the neck so a complete face/head shave taken care of and I look as good as ever! Which is pretty good, if you ask me.

I'll dig into the thread and see what I missed out on. Thanks for keeping us moving forward while I took care of business. You all are the best!!
