    For those of you with way too much time on your hands, and nothing better to do.

    Knives, rocks and razors.

    Even better. Same head better handle. Looks like the Rockwell handle can relax in the bullpen

    I agree on the agressive in non agressive and vice versa. Appreciate your opinion and will let you know my thoughts when they arrive and I try them out. Thanks again :)

    I find if you just rotate them brushes a bit and slide a shim under the one side before photographing, it repairs the label and makes the brush work fine.

    I heard it was too cold to have a flame in some parts of Canada

    We don't use propane as it fails to light in extreme temperatures. MAP gas is the choice of Canadian flame throwing enthusiasts.

    I've actually done the exact same thing on my steep driveway with a 20 lb propane tank and a turbo torch from Harbor Freight. I just didn't get it videotaped :happy102:

    This actually works provided your vehicle doesn't leak oil in the driveway....then it gets tricky.:happy102:

    I don't think that I will have a problem. I just will go a little slower to get a feel for the razor and get the angle.

    Beautiful shave and setup Barry! I feel the same way with my Dovo shavette because it was my first open blade razor.

    Thanks again Bill! Danny showed a picture of using a Rockwell handle on an R41 Head and base plate. YouTuber Rich shaves did a vid years ago shaving with the same Frankenrazor combo.

    @Edison Carter @Primotenore I kinda like the black hairs as it adds contrast and interest to the brush. I never researched it enough to know as I just use it as it was intended but assumed the black ones just didn't get bleached enough as the blonde did. Here's a factoid for you tenderfoots, the black hairs split and get soft just like all the others. ;)

    Silly Sunday Shave

    Sunday January 31, 2021
    Razor: TNNSER
    Blade: Gem (?)
    Brush: Stuart/Timberwolf
    Soap: Fuzzyface Monkey Farts
    AS 1: Humphrey's Alcoholado Maravilla 70
    AS 2: Clubman Citrus Musk
    Fragrance: Acqua Di Gio Profumo


    Well today I felt like a fun shave and I can tell you any rawness is gone, I feel smooth and refreshed. Shaved with some Monkey Farts today spread around the mug by my assistant Stuart. The 3D printed one sent for a trial arrive damaged and I will attempt a repair so the pass around can continue. Suds (Farts) were removed by 1 of my 3D printed TNNSER razors that has a Gem blade with unknown number of uses. VERY audible razor but always produces a glass smooth shave result. Topped with Citrus Musk and will take some hits of the Profumo before Zoom services this morning. Afterwards the wife and I need to do some shopping for us and the Out-Laws as we do every 2 weeks. Hope all have a stupid Fun Day today !!
