The point is also well made, by Antdad, about the cheaper Wilky brush; I keep banging on about it but, once broken in, it is a top performer. Don't dismiss it to soon.

1. What is a black handle SS, please?
2. How do you 're-mill' one shaving soap into another bowl?
I now have my Edwin Jagger puck - and cake of EJ soap rattling around in a cylindrical, plastic, lidded tub. I find this very unsatisfactory, especially as the plastic tub costs an extra £3.00 over a refill cake.
So I'd like to buy a mahogany bowl and re-mill the EJ cakes into it so I finish up with a soap dish that looks like the one in AntDad's photo at the beginning of this thread.
Or
Is there a bowl designed to accept EJ cakes snuggly, does anyone know?
Bechet45 said:I think medium grated EJ soap into a wooden bowl of choice is going to be the most economical way to go but I await a quote from Hampshire Wood-Turners Association - well, see if anybody wants the commission first - for a tailor made bowl so the EJ refills just fit snugly into it. I've asked for Rosewood or Kingwwod.
