I'll add that I learned quite alot at my recent meetup in Kenosha just from being able to see guys perform certain actions, such as honing. After 2 years of shaving and honing, I learned that I was pretty far off from where I needed to be on the hones. Since then, my honing time has drastically been reduced.

+1 on meeting up with Senior members to get a walk-through with everything shaving related.
