Thread: Shaving mugs

thats a nice looking mug.

Planetocean I think has the best cup.
I used to use a ceramic bowl, large mug, and now a bowl of steel for $ 1

Metal bowl with easy warm hair dryer, then take the foam

I just use a large coffe mug...melt two pucks of the VDH and add my scent of choice...currently have Gabels Bay Rum in one mug, Pinaud's Clubman in one mug and Joop in the VDH bowl...if I remember correctly, some shaving mugs have the "knob" to hold on to rather than the coffee mug "handle" but I believe it's the only real difference...I think that the scuttle per se is like a double boiler with the shave soap/paste in the inner bowl and the hot water in the outer bowl to heat and soften the shave soap/paste...really though, I've seen coffe mugs used, sugar bowls..all sorts of things...just look around on the site...there are ALOT of REALLY imaginative folks in here with ALOT of great ideas...
