If I may say... This is an improved avatar.

I quite enjoyed my tube of Ingram. Mine was an older tube though; I had to massage the tube to keep it from separating..

I am a major fan of the Black Treet myself. Some people do not like them, but if you are a fan of carbons, the Treet Black is a good blade.

When I first started around three years ago, I loathed face lathering. Now however, all I want to do is face lather!

Great shave. After I tune up the honing procedure a little, this old chopper gets very "comfortable" edge. Shaves great, the feedback is less though, but the end result is often even better then my regular DE shave! Easy DFS++!

You don't shave a mug, no sense in lathering one...

Heh! Good one Dale!

Nice...I may have to ditch it for a while...Except on those days when I especially want warm lather.

Post: Cold Water, Alum, Thayer's original
AS: CLUBMAN!!!

Face lathering with the new brush was perfect. It held just the right amount of water, No dipping required.

Yeah, Thanks BTW that was one of the blades you gave me. The bad thing is they stopped making them and replaced them with Dura Sharp. I haven't tried those yet, from what I have read they are the same or better. Hopefully that is the case.

The Durasharp are okay IIRC. Looks like Shoebox still has the Blacks for sale... I better order another card.

What are you using as a lid on that Old Spice mug?

Looks like the original soap lid to me, just a little less.... Red?

There is no star/compass, though. I was hoping he had found something better than my Betty Crocker icing lid.

It is the lid from a Tupperware snack cup. You can also get them in green (Shrek) or pink (Cinderella). It is a very good fit. http://order.tupperware.ca/pls/htpr...tegory_code=10201&fv_item_number=P10101939000

I've never seen an original lid before, thanks for the link. Looks like my tupperware is a pretty good replacement. Just don't tell Mrs. Robzilla.
