    I know that I will. The last time I was south of the M-D line was when my friend sold me his car back in 2013. In fact, it was almost to this day that I picked up the car.

    timabababaluka No exceptions. Except.....

    Keeps the kids from using it to wipe pencil sharpener shavings off the table (a true story that prompted the ceiling hang in the first place).

    Sweet steal! Kinda makes me sad to hear folks don't use them much these days, though--it's like a really cool part of an era is dying.

    Not I. Speaking of which, I've got a EJ de89 he can have--my boys have ignored it far too long :)

    That's a kind offer. I already sent him two razors as replacements. I've been trying to reduce my duplicates anyway.

    I mentioned him because, my mind is a little scattered and random tonight and he's a school teacher with 8 kids. Those pieces fit together, right?

    I just got her "good night" text. I guess at this point the question is Ebay or Etsy?

    I'm afraid folks might think that to be excessive.

    I mean we're just talking about shaving here.

    I mean, like, how much stuff does a guy need anyhow.

    2 words that also are a quid pro quo.

    Wow, less than 24 hours and 350+ posts behind, sorry boys I just can't keep up with the thread this weekend.

    Sunday shave: Yesterday's hot lather test with TOBS went well so I decided to put DR Harris cream to the hot lather test today. It performed excellent, as slick or slicker than the normal warm or cold lather. It looked bubbly and watery in the scuttle but on my face it thickened up but not too much, just right for an open blade shave. Like yesterday I went with the aircraft carried dock scuttle and huge brush, Simpson Polo 12. To give you and idea on the size of the scuttle I took a family picture, that is a Kent BK 12 in the huge scuttle, the normal scuttle is empty and my daily driver bowl has a Simpson Polo 12 in it. I use my daily driver bowl 90+% of my shaves.

    My treasured SK-3 was the razor of choice, still sporting the edge from Glen @gssixgun , smooth as silk and very sharp. A most excellent shave today.

    Finally my lapping film has come in so I can work on my razors and focus. May wait to start it in February.

    I feel bad Keith. I have the same issue keeping up with posts so I just skip forward to more recent ones, which means I always skip yours. Your posts are always awesome.

    Without my wife around this Sunday morning today may be the day I experiment with the electric kettle and hot lather.
