Thread: New York City/ Long island meetup

Unfortunately, I won't be able to make it. They couldn't get a sub to cover my class on Sunday. Have some fun for me, guys.

I can't wait for tomorrow. I just got my second SR from WhippedDog yesterday and I tried today and the results were sub-par. I need the gurus to look at it and help me understand what happened with my shave today.

See you guys tomorrow!

Had a great time meeting everyone, very collegial, informative and supportive atmosphere. Got some great tips, even picked up 4 straights while I was there.

Good times! Wish I had more time to spare today, definitely looking forward to the next one!

It was nice meeting with every one today. Hope to keep in touch.

Had a terrific time. There were a good number of new wet shavers and those with greater experience and skills freely offered help in a wonderful sharing atmosphere. There was very kind of razor to put your hands on and feel, from kamisoris to high-end works of art to Ebay beaters. A couple of tables devoted to honing. Saw kangaroo strops and a demonstration on how to make the perfect lather. A friend from across the pond make a generous contribution of time and razors. Thank you Binardo. Thanks to all those who shared their skills and education.

It would be wrong not to thank Airportcopper for his work in putting this together and thanks to the Ft. Lee PBA for letting us use the Range House.

I'm looking forward to the next one.

Guys, it was a pleasure meeting almost all of the members lol

I admired the work of bayamontate pretty much all morning. He definitely knows how to hone a razor.

Also thanks to JoeLowet for showing me how to properly get a good lather going.

The only thing I forgot to ask was how to properly strop but at least I got some tips from the guys, hopefully I will not smooth the edge again.

Thank you everyone and I can't wait for the next meet.

You picked up 4 straights...from where LOL? I would would have liked to pick up some as well...maybe next time

It was a blast today!

I had a great time seeing some people again, and meeting lot's of new people.

Especially great seeing so many great collections of razors, whether shiny new customs, or patina covered razors from 1800's. And more stones than I could register; coti's, j-nats, mystery stones, eschers, synthetics.

Some of you guys came from out of state and even out of country. Bringing your great collections, and expertise to enrich our day.

Thanks to the guys who let me hone razors for them, I hope you get a great shave. Thanks to Nelson for letting me use your J-nats.

And Finally a big thanks to Jeff for being a great host, and all the members who made the day so great!
