November 2019 30 Day Rule/Focus Pix & Discussion

Thank you Joe.

 

Congrats on the first 1k Daniel. Looking forward to the next 1k.

 

OCtober Mitchell's Wool Fat usage.

Initial weigh in with one week rest:
269g

Final weigh in after thirteen shaves with one week rest:
271g

I think I need a new scale.

 

Thanks, Rick! I tried it that way and there is a very small amount of play in the alignment still, so i had to re-do it a few times to get it perfect. And i managed to somehow slice my thumb, it's a good idea to play with razors at 3am after not enough coffee. It wasn't too bad though, but it bled enough to make a mess. I had band-aids handy though, the ones that you have to cut to length yourself, i just used the razor blade to cut it and put the band-aid on tight enough that it shouldn't be a problem.

I'm not very familiar with aggressive razors and it's actually my first adjustable too. I'll try it with a Treet or something not too sharp just to make sure i don't wreck my face too badly if my technique slips. I've been riding the cap with my other razors though, except for a few tough spots where it's just easier to maneuver without doing so.

 

Thanks, Clint!

 

Or, you could spend that money to buy a new razor, blades, soap or something else!

 

Great looking brush!

 

Sorry about the thumb, Daniel. I can sympathize.
The company nurse called me back in to get a tetanus shot this morning.

 

Cuts can be quite annoying.
I should get one too, can't remember when i got the shot last time. Probably 10-12 years ago.

 

Thanks, Clint!

 

Just wondering. Not a big deal.

 

Great image and setup Jim! Yet another PAA fragrance I’ve never heard of. Hmm. Sample added to cart. Enabler.

Great shave Terry! Nice Monobilt (I’m gonna day that every time). Love it.

 

Love the filter! And more PAA samples...Enabler x2.

Good evening guys!
Straight razor shave #115
30 same straight razor and setup rule (5)
Wolstenholm 5/8 Sq Pt
Stirling Boar
Stirling Sandalwood AS and SS
Nivea ASB not pictured
Everything went well with this shave. Made a nice wet lather that had the typical, excellent Stirling slickness. Did my normal amount of passes on a 28 hr stubble that gave my a BBS without any drama. Finished with the matching aftershave and Nivea ASB, respectively. Well, I have 5 shaves completed and 25 more to complete this challenge. Thanks for your support guys. I really appreciate. Have a great evening and a great Friday, guys!

 

Thank you, Blair!

 

Great shave, Joe!

 

This is why the 30 DC crew is the best. The diverse knowledge of the 30DC members is quite extensive!

 

Thank you, Jim!

 

Great looking shave Rick.

Good job staying with the rule Joe.

 

How's the thumb, Jim?

Sorry about the cut on your thumb, Daniel.
