Looks like that brush is developing a nice patina. I'd never turned either of those woods (redheart and yellowheart) before, to be honest. I bought the blanks years ago to make a chess set out of them. That idea got lost to the dustbin of history, until I found the box of wood this summer while cleaning up the shop area. We moved here almost 10 years ago, for pete's sake...not my finest hour.
Some of us. There are lots of hipster beards around these parts right now, though.
well, every day that you post that you haven't harmed yourself is a good day, Terry.
You have a long way to go on that Astra Planeta still, Jim! The Occam's DE is a fine shaver. Interestingly, the 3 plates you sent me do result in differences. I prefer the aggressive full scallop and that mild baseplate you showed off today. I don't find the 1/2 scalloped 'middle' plate as smooth as either of the others.
Love the greenery with the Vetiver, Clint. I suspect the Pils is a better shaver on flat parts and seems to struggle more with hard curves. Since we're both in our 50s, lets just pretend we both have hard jawlines that jut out 90 degrees from the neck and that is obviously the cause of the Pils issues...
Love everything about that shave, Danny. L'Orange Noir was a gift? That is an alltimer for PIFs. Just an amazing dupe.
Love seeing your props again, Gary. Love the Rubberset more and more everytime you show it off, too!
You really do have an amazing brush collection, Joe. So very original. Enjoy your day working from home.
Very nice, Joe. If you really like that Spice, I can't recommend the vintage Shulton version any higher. You will notice a depth that adds to the pleasant Stirling dupe.
Sounds like a great start to a nice day, Jeff. Love that brush by Evan for sure.
Awesome pics and report, Joseph. I had the Seville in that same base. B&M didn't need to change that Glissant base, it was a fine product.
