Just wanted to acknowledge the simple but excellent composition of Johnny's and John's photos. There's always a "story."
Prep: hot water wash with Stirling bath soap Razor: Frankenrazor made of Hallmark top plate, Fatip base plate and Ikon bulldog handle Blade: Polsilver SI (2) Brush: Ever-Ready 650PB restored with TGN two band finest Soap: Mike's Natural Orange Cedarwood and Black Pepper Scuttle: Georgetown Pottery G5 in Hamada glaze (used as brush scuttle) Post: Thai Crystal deodorant alum stick and Thayers alcohol free witch hazel
Result: BBS in 3+ passes. Great shave. Close, comfortable and pleasurable. Love the my second restore. I think this turned out so good that I really had a tough act to follow. I learned a lot with it and have made and restored many brushes since then. Some of them amazingly good, but this one still remains one of my best. I love it when a plan comes together.
