Hi Dave,Razor: ATT M1 Kronos
Blade: Gillette Silver Blue
Bowl: Executive Shaving handmade
Brush: Razorock BC Silvertip synth
Post: Barts Balm Lime ASB
Soap: random one I got sent a sample of from a TSR member a while back, no clue what it is
What's the deal with soap then? I really don't get it. It took ages to get lather, when it started to form there were huge clumps everywhere. The final lather I used was ok but still had small clumps in as I'd given up trying. At the end I had to use cotton buds to get the gunk out of the grooves in the bowl, and the brush took some rinsing. Is it because it wasn't straight out of a tub? (It was wrapped in a couple of food bags). Answers on a postcard. Enjoying the M1, mild like a DE89 but feels so much better. A pretty idiot proof razor

Thanks. It was relatively easy. The loaded mechanism with the key just clicked in. The tricky bit was modifying the black plastic end plate.Damned impressive sir. I'm still at the pushing-down-spring-with-existing-blades-using-a-hairpin stage.
