January 2020 30 Day Rule/Focus Pix & Discussion

Thanks Jason! Your input is certainly valuable even if you've never used this exact model. My PAL was in the same lot as my Cooper Monobilt. I wouldn't have purchased it otherwise, but now that I have it it's worth keeping.

I'll keep an eye out for an E or G model injector. Funny because I need to settle down and focus but there's so much out there to try. Experimenting is fun.

 

Joe:
I was just teasing! You of course are welcome to do with your razors as you like.

 

Thanks, Jason!

 

I may be out of pocket for a while. Pulling out in the morning and headed to Pennsylvania. This is unexpected. My wife's best friend's boy friend of six years is in real bad shape and is not expected to live. My wife's friend said that she needs her so we are on the way. My wife and her are real close and almost like sisters. Please pray for the them and for us as we travel. I'll try to check in later on.

 

Matt asked me to send him some pictures of the razor with a blade loaded. I’ve done that. Waiting to hear back.

 

Thanks, Tim, much appreciated! The brush is a real treasure! Jim Roe builds great brushes for an incredibly reasonable price.

 

So sorry to hear this, Danny! Prayers have begun!

 

January Focus

Barrister & Mann Bay Rum~~Simpson Milk Churn~~1947 Gillette Super-Speed~~Dominica
After a weekend of listening to Dr. Mrs. Primo complain about the Murphy & McNeil soap,
I decided to use a product sure to receive the SWMBOSOA©
Barrister & Mann Bay Rum
I really like this version of their soap, not sure what it's called,
but it's not as sticky and gooey as their Reserve soap.

The Milk Churn is filled to the gills with some super-slick 'n shiny lather.
This smallish knot can really hold a ton of suds.
Plentissimo for three passes. And that's just what Primo performed.
Still cruising along with the Polsilver/SS combo.
Where will it end
I wish the Dominica bottle had a flow restrictor. You have to be cautious when dispensing.
This Bay Rum is Numero Uno in Primo's book o' juices. (Patent Pending)​

 

Safe travels and prayers for your friend.

 

Well... This was also in a lot I purchased a couple months ago. I guess I'm trying this one tomorrow.




Seriously people just throw a bunch of dirty razors in box and sell them. I bought this because the lot had a couple Superspeeds I figured would be good plating practice. Go figure.

 

So sorry to hear this, Danny.
Safe travels and prayers sent.

 

Sorry about your wife's best friend's significant other's condition. Safe travels and prayers, my friend.

 

That's an awesome shave, pic, gear and review, amigo!

 

Great looking shave, Joseph!
If you have had that soap for awhile it's probably the Glissant base. I believe the current roster of scents is being transitioned to the Excelsior base.
I agree about the Reserve base. I usually go at it with a wetter than usual brush and about a fifteen second load.

 

Wow, take care Danny. We'll be praying for you all.

 

Thank you, Tim!

 

I think Keith is onto something. It feels really nice on the face. I'm pretty sure the melting points of the various fats are at play.

 

Nice picture, Evan!

 

Looks like a good shave, Myles!

 

Great picture, Tim!
