March 2021 30 Day Rule/Focus Pix & Discussion. ALL are Welcome!

???

 

Thanks for your thoughts Joe. I may need to get some more knots coming. The more I look at the handles the more I think I would like the Cashmere knot as well.

I think these handles would look great along side the Yates or Rockwell 6S razor.

Take care.

 

There's always the Timberwolf

 

Good idea..did not think of that one.

 

Yes jump in with us and have some fun. I'm hoping to get back on here full time again soon.

 

It will be hard for me to set down the Red tip but I think I can do it. I bought all those new razors and 99% of the time I reach for the one you gave me . Hope I dont wear it out

 

Rumor has it that the dog sled team from CP has been slow as of late due to the snow melting in parts of Canada. Rest assured your package will arrive sometime before the team abandons the sled and continues on foot . Brush looks awesome and the printing is straight....Sorry but I had to mention that. Enjoy your new brush Jason

 

So a 25mm hole basically for a 24mm knot

 

Tired Dave quoted you instead of Danny. Got a little sleep now and fixed

 

Gotta love Polyoxymethylene

 

Williams Wednesday
Wednesday March 24, 2021
Razor : Yates H PLate/Tatara Handle
Blade : Wizamet (4)
Brush: Mr.EE LE
Soap: Vintage Williams
AS 1: Humphrey's Alcoholado Maravilla 70
AS 2: Vintage Williams Aqua Velva
Fragrance: Paco Rabanne 1 Million

Has been a long time since I used the Yates Precision Razor. I had got a Tatara Handle off the BST not knowing that their threading doesn't run all the way due to their locking method. It drives me nuts when makers design their product not to be universal. Can't thy look at all the Companies in the past that made their product proprietary and fell by the way side because of it. Any way I figured what did I have to lose at this point so took it to the bench grinder and then finished with a file to smooth it out and BOOM I had a handle that will work with my Yates Head as I don't really care for any of their handles. Got a great shave from the razor and would use it more if it was more interchangeable with things. Ironic that both companies make it hard to use other products with theirs but they are now a good match. I like the handle feel and look on this head much better. Vintage Williams Day and great lather was whipped up with the Mr. EE brush that has finally decided to get along with the knot and not spit it out Hit it with the 1 Million and ready for the day. My typical Wednesday Morning and then take my Wife and Mother in Law in for us to all get our 1st shot of the Vaccine (Pfizer) It's up to you so try to, Make it a great day everyone !!

 

I really like the industrial look Danny. I am thinking it would great in a photo with the Nodachi. Any of the synthetic knots would work great. Changing the knot color would change the look of the brush.

 

Awesome shave report and photo Dave. I am glad you were able to make the handle work.

 

Very cool, Danny. You have some amazing talents, my friend. I guess this opens the door to some plastic jokes.

Happy Hump Day Everyone. I had planned to use Mike's Bay Rum today but a text reminding me of my annual physical this morning made me reconsider. I decided the Cade cream with its light scent might be best in a doctors office this morning. The T3 was once again a joy to use face lathering. Three passes and touchups caught the baby. The Pils razor is just different enough that I need a few shaves to get reacquainted with its narrow sweet spot. I hope everyone has a great Wednesday.

 

Clint, Great shave and call on the change up. Now..................cough

 

Thanks Clint, have a great day !

 

That looks like it would be easier to work with than resin although I've never tried cutting it . The sky is the limit on your own creation Danny. Do what makes you happy. Nothing wrong with just having a plain handle . I appreciate everyones ideas and designs .

 

I'm in for an LE Delrin 3-piece razor. Serial no. 007 please.

Pass the Rocky Road.
