    I like the pace that this box is moving at. Slow enough that each participant gets to sample and enjoy but fast enough that it doesn't seem like it will take forever to get to the next person.

    Hello everyone! I have made up my mind on adding and subtracting items. I will send pics and information later tonight. One problem. If I tape this box completely do you think the usps will take it. I may have added too much. Or not taken enough. [​IMG]

    Perhaps we need to spawn a box??? Break the box half? I will contribute to the extra shipping cost.

    So, I found out that I am terrible at Tetris. The trick of this box is to take out at least as much as you put in or spawn a new one. I got the box reloaded after another look. I didn’t want to be a glutton. But I am tickled with what I received and hope y’all can get some enjoyment from what I put in.

    I did yes. I have used the brush I enjoyed it. I left the handle just stained and actually put butcher block wax on it from time to time. I can’t remember the knot size was awhile ago. Maggards knot I believe.

    Today’s shave was fantastic! I used the What the Puck Lime burst and the Brown Burl Acrylic brush w/TGN Badger knot. Brush is BIG! It’s awesome. Soap performed well and smelled great! Thank you all!

    RyX DoH!

    Thanks for dropping in Perry! I was in on one of your Soap Pass-around Boxes. Very good experience being able to make physical contact with products that I'd only seen in SOTD photos. These guys have stepped it up a notch with general gear.
    That Box of Perry's @PLAla had the same problem. I think I received 10-12 pounds, and sent on 14 pounds of stuff.
    We need The Doctor's help. A little dimensional transcendentalism?
