    Default G'day from Tasmania AU

    Stumbled across this site and thought it might be a bit of fun while gaining some knowledge along the way. Started off with the old shavette, which was a good investment at the time in regards to learning the basics without the stress of honing, stropping, wife nagging etc. Still need to master the intricacies that make this a cool hobby plus the second and third passes, as currently doing some minor modification and re-sculpturing to the chin with each. What else can I say apart from what an awesome way to kick off the day and turning the five o’clock shadow into a ten o’clock shadow.

    How do I move this post to the introductions section? Rookie mistake number 1.

    G'day Stripey, you must be the last of the Tassie Tigers then huh?! Or have you got your stripes some other way?! Welcome to SRP. There are a few other Aussies around here somewhere as well. No doubt they'll pop in for a look in some time soon. Take it slowly, no pressure, watch your angles and good prep beforehand goes a long way.

    Welcome Shavettes will shave. Straights can be more fun though.
