I mentioned that after I complete this challenge (target date Dec 15) I will do Dovo/DE December for the rest of the month. I will be using 2 Dovo shavette shaves for every DE shave. I figure 10 shaves left after the 15th would give me 7 shavette shaves and 3 DE shaves. If it goes according to plan, I will use my Rockwell Model T, one of my Fatboys and my Slim for the 3 DE's. Also, I had 3 new Stirling soaps that were delivered to me last month that I have been wanting to use, but couldn't because of my same software part of my 30 shave challenge. They are Stirling's Christmas Eve, Frankincense and Myrrh and Stirling Spice which will help me usher in the Christmas season.
Hi Gary . Doing fine here ....until the snow starts. I am tickled to get to finally try the vintage stuff.
Probably never. It's just a hobby. While I've had good results lately I still have plating failures and I'd hate to ruin something that belongs to someone else. If I have a long string of success, I may offer to plate stuff as part of a trade or other good will economy arrangement. Like my CNC hobby, I don't try to make money from it. It's less enjoyable if money is involved.
myself included .10+ years with modern williams, a wilkie brush and gillette mach3s.the modern lathers fine here..this should be good..
I feel very similarly about the turnings I have made. The original LE brushes I gifted, and most things you see on here were a PIF or more likely a trade. Only the LE ‘19 I charged for. I enjoy doing stuff for folks on here and have resisted expanding beyond that.
