    @Edison Carter , I'm glad you gave me a like on my exchange with the Chemistry professor-sounds like you and he said same.....that there wouldn't be much of a difference.

    This was the best shave with my Rex yet. Loaded up a brand new Rockwell blade, which seems to pair really well in this razor, I have some blade samples coming in the mail soon, as well.
    I really focused on using no pressure and the angle, the razor mowed down the hairs nicely and efficiently, even on settings 3 and 2.
    The alum gave a slight tingle on my normal trouble spots, down on my neck, no big deal though still turned out with a DFS.

    Great photo as always, Clint! I've been really enjoying using my synthetics lately, might give this one a try sometime.

    That’s right!
    What Gary was probably referring to was that the US Govt has forbidden 3M from sending any N95 masks to Canada. That may make sense to some, except for the fact that the raw materials for the 3M masks come from...wait for it... Canada. Is this really the time to be messing with any supply chains, either way.

    Epic! The razor sounds like you prepared it perfectly.
    I could use that soap here today, Keith. High of 4C. 10 degrees below normal.

    Nice shave James!
    Great picture too.
    Nice injector, I have a few of them laying around.
    I like the Schick E's and PAL's, they do great with B-20's.
    I'd call that an unfocused focus.
    That works here.

    You’re making great progress. After experimenting with all the settings I came to prefer somewhere around 3 for the shave and 1 for buffing my neck.
