Mini Meet
I had been following the thread about the Fort Lee meet. Unfortunately I wasn't able to attend but discovered a fellow board member lives in the next town. We're in the Lehigh Valley area, I'm in Bethlehem, he is from Allentown.
He did attend the meet and just yesterday he visited me in my studio. We looked over part of my current collection, sorted through boxes of pieces I have for resto, looked over several that have come in for restoration. I also ( not pictured) dug through my collection of DEs as well. All the while negotiating around a current project in my shop.
The first row is 22 of my 25 W&Bs,, then Ivories, matching scales,boxes of soon (?) to be restored, clients razors for restoration, and my current carving project an 8 ft. X 8 ft. wide carved tree.
We had a wonderful time besides the fact I had to remind Charles,,, nothing is for sale,,, despite his valiant attempts.

Set a date and time, I have no objection to a ride to PA for a meet up.

thats a tad overwhelming. I couldn't stand to own that many razors. To me, It would loose the fun. but I must say there are probably a ton of blades there that I would love to own lol

Looks like about a 3 year rotation. I hope somebody is paying you a gazillion dollars for that tree carving. It looks like a lifetime of work and very nice by the way.

Thanks.
The tree is getting finished up today. Took almost exactly a month from the glue up of just over 100 pcs.
It will look like half of this one i did a few years ago which arched over the ref/freezer as well as the other carvings in this kitchen.
