Let the Blogging Begin!

What is this blog about? The title says it all for now. Starting out I will post about my experiences with wet shaving and try to link in to wet shaving resources on the internet.

For starters, here's a picture of my daily lathering kit:




Life is good!

I made the brush and bowl on my lathe in my workshop. The bowl is made out of some awesome coastal oak that I picked up from a down tree near my home. The brush is figured walnut with a 28mm silvertip badger hair knot. The knot is a high density knot with a 58mm loft. It's a great soap brush, but it also works pretty well with creams.

The lather above was generated in about 20 seconds from Truefitt and Hill 1805 shaving cream. Very nice.
