Hi all,
I went to a thrift store to see if I couldn't find a nice mug or bowl to use for lathering. I ended up buying a couple of items to make a Thrift Store Scuttle :tu
After cleaning the bowls with a little Dawn (also great for cleaning Gulf inhabiting sea cretures and birds), I decided to give the scuttle a test run.

As you can see the metal bowl fits quite nicely into the larger ceramic bowl. The Metal bowl even has a nice ring so you can securely hold the scuttle while lathering. The metal bowl easily transfers heat from the hot water in the larger bowl. When I actually go to shave I'm going to use water heated from my stove in there!
I hope you guys enjoyed!
Thanks SRP!
