I'm in.
I went to various corners of wet shaving enablers (artisans) and bothered a lot of vendors and finally one of them showed enough patience and good pricing for me to take up the DIY knot setting and handle customisation.
I have placed the order already and no more purchases will be done in the upcoming months, I'll be receiving the deliveries later on.
As I get the delivery and move on with the brush completion, I'll share the photos here.

@FoolishMortal - Brandon, I want to participate for August again, but I do need to check: I committed to buying a Tech (will, two actually) in July with funds transfer in August. Am I assuming correctly that I should see this as “out” for August? In that case I will participate nonetheless but off-list.
And to allother gents (and Brandon included of course!): great to see you again!
Cheers,
Guido

Cancelled my order and instead was able to purchase and pick up a Flat Bottom Tech short drive from where I live. It came with a case and looks like this:

Hi Guido, and thanks for checking. The transfer of the funds would put you out, but you are more than welcome to join for the month, even with the "planned out" in the future. A considered purchase is still a purchase, but a lot better than an "I can't help myself" purchase...

A great start into the new month... a month of restraint and pineapple goodness
