1. Keep up the good work brother. quiting smoking is not easy and I give people credit for kicking a habit like drugs,alcohol, and tobacco. The first few days may suck, but you will feel much better once you break the habit.
  2. Picked up this metal stand for $20 shipped. Seems to be able to do a good job holding most razors - and look pretty good doing it;

  7. Very unique razor :happy088: Judging just by the picture it seems as if the baseplate was plastic - but it's blue aluminium, right?

  9. Yes the entire razor is anodized aluminum. I would have preferred it to be anodized solid gray.

    That looks cool and futuristic. Bravo.

  10. Thanks - I've been looking for one of these for quite a while now ;) It was designed by Kenneth Grange - here's an interesting news article

  11. It amazes me how some designs look futuristic decades later while other designs look outdated the day they are released. Very interesting article that points out how our disposable society has impacted designs and designers.

  17. Not shaving related but after today's race at Homestead my favorite driver won so I had to get the hat.

  19. Well don't know if I'll regret this trade but sending away my 2011 Rosegold R41 for an Ever Ready Streamline set. Figured since the '11 hardly gets used 21 times in five years might as well let someone else enjoy it. It was the only razor that I have that I could not go back to back days shaving and I shave everyday. Figured might as well trade for another hard to get razor. Hope it shaves as good as it looks.
