Good to see you post on here, Brian. No 3000 post catch up necessary- A handful of us joined up on here and focus on using soaps until they are done. Some of the crew from the old days, without the huge post counts. Currently, 4 of us are 3017ing tubs of Mike’s Natural Soap at the same time. That about sums it up.
I have a tub of Mike’s, maybe I’ll join you in that endeavor. Nice to see everybody. (Oops, used a big word. Charlie, please substitute “effort” for the big word)

Day 4 November 8th Canadian Rocket w Nacet (1) APShave Silvertip/ MrEE LE #007 Mike’s Orange, Cedar & Pepper SS Thayers Myrsol F extra The Mikes is a quality product, but I’ve had a few days where I simply haven’t loaded enough product. I think I’ll build the lather on the puck a little more than usual (which is usually not at all) for a few days. Have a great day all.
I have been overloading for years, so I will say: Building the lather on the puck is the defacto Fast 'n Loose preferred technique.
I dug out the Mike’s this morning. This is my starting point for this thread. For Charlie: I forgot what a nice soap Mike’s is. SOTD Mike’s Natural Soap T-400 brush by Tom Stirling stainless razor Astra Platinum blade Stirling Sharp Dressed Man Have fun!
Good to be back. I will have to see what to use to join up. My product use hasn't been too great recently. The good news is my wallet hasn't drained as quickly.
