I just have to say thank you to the man who pics the picture for the shave of the day. It sure was surprising when i got up in the morning and seen my picture on the front page of the forum. Makes me feel proud!
Beautiful razor as always Mike, but that Williams Mug????? You must have some secret or magical powers to get that crap to lather. I've tried everything, bottled water, bowl lathering, face lathering, different brushes, etc and the only thing that works is to blend it off with Creamo.:banghead:
Just a neck shave as the winter beard is in effect. Got a chance to try this soap tonight though. Smells delicious.

My puck always stays in the mug.
So I put enough water in the mug to just barely cover the puck, and that soaks all nite. In the morning I build a nice thick lather in the mug, add 4-5 drops glycerin, whip a bit more, apply like I'm face lathering.
Note: don't drain the excess water from the mug in the morning. Just wet your brush, and shake it out, and get at it.
It still dries, but not nearly as fast as by itself. It falls between the two, Williams Mug & Willmo. I shave fairly fast, and like the Williams Mug scent.
But if I'm right. Cremo makes an unscented, the original is a citrus scent.
Thanks Mike. Next shave, probably tomorrow, I'll try soaking it all night with bottled water and add glycerin.
For Wednesday morning

First pass was for the German blade, second pass for the French.
Both performed excellent.
---Wednesday---
Razor--Osborne and Garrett 13/16.
Strop--SRD Premium 1 and Illinois 6454.
Soap--Williams Mug......Outback Mike style.
Brush--Semogue 830 boar.
Aftershave--Alum block, witch hazel, and a generous splash of homemade bay rum.
Result--Coticule smooooth shave. First time in my life that I got a decent lather with Williams Mug solo. Mounds of thick suds with enough left over to wash my face post shave. Thanks Mike. You guys have a great rest of the week. Next shave is Sunday. Look sharp and smell nice for the ladies.
