Ok, I'm pretty nubilated here, but I've done a couple shaves complete with the SR, and I am baffled.

It's like a game of twister, or doing a rubics cube -- I can't get the blade to where I want it without my arms and legs getting in the way.

Ok, I exaggerate, but you know what I mean. Only if I opt for a very tenuous grip can I seem to get into position.

I am constrained to right hand drive only, at the moment, with a broken finger on my left hand.

As for closeness -- I think I could get closer with a cheese grater, but I understand that comes in time.

Advice "grate"-ly apprciated. ;-)
