  1. Just got in the house from a busy day. I had some excitement today. I was cutting my dad's grass this morning with my son's Exmark when it caught fire. Main thing damaged was the seat and the wiring harness which we can repair the harness. The grommet came out of the left fuel tank causing a stream of gas to leak around the yard. Ever see the barrel of gun powder leaked out in a cartoon. That's is what it looked liked when it ignited. I am thankful it happened next to the house so I could grab the hose, hook it up, get the kinks out and then put the fire out. If it would have happened on the lower end of the yard it would have burnt to the ground. I did burn my right hand but it could have been a lot worse. My son called his boss and we borrowed the new Exmark demo unit and finished cutting dad's yard, then our yard and the grass at the farm. Y'all give me a little while and I'll catch up with all of these great post. Take care! 20190629_090358.jpg 20190629_090353.jpg 20190629_085854.jpg 20190629_085939.jpg

  8. That makes sense. Lead, gold, uranium are lower on the chart. But watch out for the xenon burps.
  9. Thanks, it could have been a lot worse. This is the first time I have ever had something like this happen.

  18. That brush....BAD. That is one of the neatest color combinations and swirls. And NO.....I've been searching on that already! :)

    Ok....so even though there was nothing to be seen in this post, I still can't unsee this mental image. That's just wrong.....

    Great brush, love that handle design and colors. Great shave with all that gear Robert!

    Should have commented on this earlier....great Avatar Lurch! Great work on the Single Ring. Still something I want for my inventory eventually. It would likely be a razor my grandfathers would have learned on.

    Nice write up. I will say your posts on the Focus shavettes have made me search them (still debating, don't have any DE blade shavettes). Great shave Bill!

    The ultimate color coordination in your images Jim. And everything looks drippy polished wet! Very nice.
  19. Thanks, Blair!

  20. There are way too many choices. I've given up so many times I've lost count!

    You guys and the awesome Paladin brush handles..... Very nice image and setup Clint! Hope the day was a great one with Mom.

    Nice shave and setup Joe! I'm also waiting on the film honing project reports....Curious, for sure. Definitely shows there is more than one way to skin a .....oh, I mean put an edge on a razor!
