    that cooler is so good you'll have 60 pounds of ice in it after 5 days
    That’s what I’m hoping for  =)

    Ron, for today’s shave it’s either going to be Stirling Spice or Stirling Vanilla Sandlewood soap.

    Ron, the only thing that I have decided on is the talcum. 

    Pinaud Clubman it is.

    A little 3% hydrogen peroxide is exceptionally refreshing if you've shaved with a dull razor....

    As refreshing as napalm.

    The Taylor Of Old Bond Street cream is the best of the best. It smells better than the hard soap. The soap provides a tad more cushion for straight razor shaving, but the cream is all you need for DE shaving. And again, the cream smells the best.

    I haven’t tried the D.R Harris. But it gets outstanding reviews.

    Ron, lets take a look at this evenings shave. I did bloom the soap (I wasn’t in a rush).
    Soap blooming:

    A quick brush load:

    A shot of the soap after blooming and brush loading:

    To the lathering bowl we go, and what a lather it was. 

    Final lather loaded on the brush and ready to go:

    Simply an outstanding lather with the Stirling soap and an all around great shave with the Vikings Blade Vulcan my friend.

    I hear the Brazilian Wax is the epitome of testosterone.   Quite refreshing after a flash of brief excruciating pain.

    @RRP  Ron, if you’re going to start a shaving thread, you really should mark it OT.

    It’s said that only deviants and charlatans shave in the evening.

    Figured this was done with an electric shaver and the power went out halfway in.

    There’s 12 steps to a Brazilian wax? Figured it was just 4. Put wax on, let wax dry, pull wax off, scream like hell.

    @RRP
    Ron, before my hijack comes to an end, I would like to share one last thing before I go. I have seen in the past that you like pottery. As such, check out my hand made shaving scuttle from Dirty Bird Pottery. 

    Sorry that you didn’t enjoy the lathering tutorials, I really thought that you would enjoy them. With that said, I hope you like the pottery. It’s truly a fine, handmade work of art. Signing off now my friend.

    @SGH Cool! Thanks for all your posts. Years ago we had a 4 story building that housed a co-op of antiques dealers. If you couldn't find something there then you didn't need it! I recall one dealer who sold nothing but shaving related products. I bet you would have gone nuts there!
