Thread: UK get together!

Hi

This is probably in the wrong section here but I reckon this powder is the same as I got from Chrisl and use myself.
GREEN CHROMIUM (III) OXIDE 250g (GREEN THERMITE) on eBay, also Chemicals, Lab Supplies, Medical Lab Equipment, Business, Office Industrial (end time 18-Aug-08 10:27:40 BST)

It is a jewellers rouge as well as all the other applications mentioned in the ad. You could try it out - doesn't cost much and you could always email the vendor to get more info before purchase.

cheers
Stephen

Unless its me that wins everything of course....

I thought that would be a given, names going out of the next draws that is NOT you winning everything Sir Sidney.

Yes we're back again! Next time away will be for the SRP Meet, woohooo!

I bought packet from Chris L in the USA. It cost $5, which is £3 ish. He will sell you some if you don't find another source. He advertises in the classifieds section under hones/strops.

I don't have enough to give it away , Im sorry.

I hope to be there. Still not quite sure, as I'm buying my first house at the moment and have a lot going on, but hopefully. Should be great.Thanks to all the peeps who have made this happen.

Thanks for the info re the whereabouts of the chrome oxide.

Regarding the meeting,are some of the guys going to do a little honing demo for us newbies

Stephen can you post a more formal program of events for the day?

Just added a couple of names to keep the list manageable. Tony (portal5) hasn't found this area to add name to list yet so I did it for him. Maybe some folks are still just not picking this event up? Tony is going to do a short restoration section during the day - many of you will have seen his 'razors on eBay.

As to a full days plan as yet Sandy - no I don't have it laid out on a timetable. This is still to do and will happen soon. There will be a honing demo, a restoration demo, the raffle and a general social - I will make out times for each of the 'planned' elements.

cheers
Stephen

Any shaving demonstrations? I mean I never miss out on the chance of improving my technique. Always learning....
