    No I've acquired so much soap I haven't made my own in ages. (Two tubs of MDC will apparently last 5 years for me given my current soap rotation). One of my mango-lemongrass batches has aged really well though I think I'm on the last of it.

    If a picture is worth 1000 words.
    Holding it in your hand is worth millions of words.
    I can't hardly believe its the same brush.

    Thank you Keith @Enrico
    You did a great job!
    I'm not going to wait till morning.
    Gonna go see how it works tonight.

    Nice, very nice brush.

    Sorry about the miss post.
    Early mornings....
    I'll leave this but I posted it on the 30DC.

    Good Tuesday morning to all.
    Now right to the nitty gritty.

    I received a brush from Keith @Enrico yesterday, I whiped up some lather with it using different soaps and it was great. This morning's shave was very different, this knot is great. I have nothing in the den to compare it to. Soft yet not limp, the feel of the bristles feel great. Makes great lather, just as well as my favorite Omega badger. Uh oh... I feel the BAD kicking in.... nice.
    The razor is a real brush cutter. If you remember I had some problems with the PAA Phoenix Starling V2. The thing would stick to my face due to some kinda suction. I took some epoxy and rounded the head to negate any of that and....
    Well, its a really good razor now, if you ride that cap. It gives one of the closest 2 pass shaves of any razo I own. Don't get me wrong, with the wrong hand guiding it, I can see disastrous results. I had a little bump on the back of the head, that is now history. I get them now and again, my razors keep them from getting out of hand. Not much blood, just enough to know it wss there. If you don't remember, I'm on blood thinners so I can leak rather good if I open the skin. This was very minimal. 20190924_062212.jpg
    Still lovin the RR Orange Sunrise and Lucky Tiger.
    Gotta get going...

    Normal pick up and delivery for the morning...
    This was taken yesterday, but applies for the whole week, every week.
    Nice

    All
    Enjoy

    A few brushes and a vintage aluminum bowl.

    Perhaps I shined up the bowl a little too much ...... (yes that's my socks, legs, shorts and hands holding my phone). :eek:

    From left to right .....
    A Rubberset 153 (in need of help)
    I believe a Chikuhodo Japanese shaving brush (probably sell .... not my style).
    A Souplex ceramic travel shaving brush (I'll restore to keep with my Souplex razor) ..... I need to get a 16mm finest knot.

    The mug / bowl I not sure of .... I'd guess from a Williams shave soap offer .... a puck would fit in perfectly. What do you think fuzzy @wchnu ?

    Nice haul! I have one of those aluminum cups. I use it all the time to soak my brush before use.
