Thread: My Journey in Learning to Hone

What is a meet? Do they have them around Seattle? I've got a big commercial building I would be willing to offer the use of in Marysville, WA

A meet is a great way to learn more. Hands on honing, sharing soap samples, learning about a lot of things that have to do with shaving.
I recommend you do a search for members in your area. Try to find a Mentor or admin from the forum to help you if you want to put together a meet. Some lasts days but like in Denver, or meets are 5 or 6 hours. Having a place is the first step. Getting folks together and wanting to come can be tough with schedules. Refreashments are a bonus and a comfortable location is a must. So find a few members in your area and send out some PMs. Hope you manage to get it going. Its a lot of fun.

There have been a lot of meets in the Seattle area. Usual under the name of shavecon or such. There is a member that organizes them. The last one I was at had a lot of suppliers there. Gssixgun is in Sandpoint Idaho and travels a lot and teaches honing. He is one of the most experienced guys around.
mattcb used to organize it in Seattle.
If you are really interested in getting involved in organizing a meet I suggest PM him first.
