Thanks, Clint! I have a quiet Sunday morning in store for me. SWMBO’s going to attend my stepson’s church service; he’s playing the drums! It’s just a bit too new age for me, Religious Science?? Sound like an oxymoron to me. I’m just a boring old Congregationalist!
Nice setup Tom! Great pic Doug! Hope you didn't get stuck in the snow taking it ! I will talk to our inhouse engineer @wristwatchb to see about designing a blade stretching device for you.
I finished off the 3-fer of P.A.A. BOOMTOWN and Clubman Special Reserve. I was very pleased. It was one of my many where I did a bit too much blooming of the brush(Stoylin 26x41 Synth), which led to a bloomed soap, but the second pass made up for what lacked before the first one(it was drier than during the first). I must be approaching the Kokum Butter aspect of the soap, as it's getting quite bright and slippery. . For kicks, I'm going to see if I can see my shadow in the thing(chuk yuk yuk). I've been thinking that this PAA soap(as well as others that have the Kokum butter)could serve as a precursor to the Bill Neumann soap(s). Both have great "skin food". I'll give myself a Quite Excellent for this one...as I did notice some redness, but they were very tiny weepers.
