Wow....and i thought Mike had the market cornered...... Just as in life.....when you think your at the top...someone comes and knocks you down WELCOME TO THE DEN
I just got one from Jim at Vintage Blades! :drool Check out the thread I started when I was looking into a soap brush http://badgerandblade.com/vb/showthread.php?t=26080 I know I'm not comparing the Duke and the Rooney but maybe you can get a feel for it. Btw, DrP why don't you post that pic on TSD of your brush collection? I'm pretty sure it was yours I saw on another forum. Talk about brush porn! Nevermind!!! John
I'm far from Peter's collection, but when I saw his pics awhile back I thought to myself that would look cool in my bathroom... and SBAD kicked in. I'll catch up eventually... I just have to pace myself so the wife doesn't kill me :ashamed001
My wife took one look at Peter's picture and said, "Don't you dare!" I said, "come on honey, I won't be riding forever. I'll pace myself. Maybe just Shavemac brushes just to be different."" Talk about rolling your eyes. :rofl
Cool, Thanks John. Congrats on your Beautiful brush!! I already have the Rooney and have been enjoying it for months now ( one of my favorite brushes ), I also have a couple Shavemacs.. I was more looking for a comparison of the Duke 2 and the Rooney 1/1...I'll probably buy the Duke 2 anyway, but was wondering if anyone had those 2 for a comparison... Neale
Per your request And now back to business again...for the time being i'll quit posting pictures like this and the one of my Simpsons collection....you guys might have the idea i'm suffering from some kind of SBAD............... BTW: did i mention i'm actually posting from "the other side"...? My wife decided some 145 brushes ago it was enough and terminated me...angry021 Let's do some serious posting over here....
See, Honey, I could be like Peter! (In my head: I wish!) DrP, thanks for filling my request. Now where's the pic of your entire collection? I would LOVE to see that. The setup for that pic would be a major production. Btw, Mike, care to go back and change your vote in the "How many brushes?" thread? Or this: 2-23-2007 "I've managed to avoid the dreaded SBAD.. So far..." I have to laugh because I remember saying "who needs more than one brush?" and "I'd never pay that for a brush." :sad023 The SBAD was the last AD I caught. I hope I'm levelling off. :sad027 Thank God for used brushes! John
Last night I lathered my first second Simpson this time the Chubby 3. Thanks to Mike for the try out. Now I have to get me one, a Simpson that is. Raf
Careful amigo, they are addictive. That was a Chubby 2 by the way.. haven't worked my way up to the 3 yet.
I have a Chubby 1 in best and love it. But the brush is rather large. I couldn't imagine how big the Chubby 3 is!
