Thank you. The slots are dadoed into square stock. The wide slots are 7/16" dadoed, the thin slots are 1/8th, cut with a regular table saw blade. I've had a couple of PMs on this from a previous thread- if you'd like a set you can have them for the cost of shipping. PM me.

We had missed you for sure...Looking forward to seeing you more.

Monday morning

I start my day with:
soap: Calani
brush: Muehle Silvertip
razor: Pearson
AS: Brut

The Pearson is a very good razor (restoration and rescaling by Buddel).

Thanks buddy, love that U.S. Steel ! And PS is driving me nuts,
my sis told me that I'd probably be overwhelmed with all it does,
and she's right ! Oh I will get it down, may just take a bit, I'm
trying to get her to send me a nice Nikon that she doesn't use
anymore, then I could try and take pics like you guys !!! That
would be sweet.

Getting ready for the new week

Prep: Warm Shower
Cream: Domenico Caraceni 1913
Strop: Kanayama Llama #90000
Brush: Rooney's Finest badger 25mm
Razor: Juan Vollmer, Palmera #14 spike point
Astringent: Thayer's Medicated SuperHazel
EdT: Domenico Caraceni 1913



A nice, refreshing start of the day.
Have a great week, Gentlemen!

Prep: Hot shower
Brush: Henks custom, 21 mm silvertip
Razor: Gillette Old Style Single Ring + platina blade
Cream: Vintage Palmolive
AS: TOBS 74 original
Result: Very, very clean
Four passes with this aggressive razor got me a little to close on the neck, but wow, what a nice shaver . I´m surprised that they made any new ones after this DE (1908) ... HEY, wait a minute, I´m not surprised - they would only have sold one razor per person and then no more

Razor: T Noonan, Arabic
Brush: Semogue 1305
Soap: Arko Shavestick
AS: Alum Block, Nivea ASB
Finish: Clubman Bay Rum AS
Result: Outstanding 3 pass shave and likely the best thing that will happen today.

Prep:Hot Shower
Scuttle: Dirty Bird Custom Double
Brush:TGN 22mm Super Premium Custom
Strop:SRD PIV English Bridle
Cream:Frankincense, Myrrh, & Vetiver Custom Bomb
Razor:Wade & Butcher Frameback by Gemstar
After shave: Frankincense, Myrrh, & Vetiver
EDT: Cartier Roadster



Result: I just got this blade back from Glen (GSSixgun). This is my first frameback & the shave was very nice. I only did 2 passes as I was still quite smooth after yesterday's tremendous shave.
Some truly marvelous blades on display already this week!

Have a great Monday Gentlemen!

Thanks

Glenn
