I want to form a study group in Northern California, the San Francisco Bay Area of fellows who would like to work and document as a group, the posting of thoughts and practical results directly onto and exclusively for for Badger & Blade (the greatest shaving forum on the web). This would ideally be a study group that could meet up at the convenience of all once a month or so to show and tell their honing and shaving experiences.
I belonged to such a group about 15 years ago, and it was a lot of fun. This is not the kind of group meeting that would necessarily exist for years and years, but more likely 4 or 5 or more meet-ups, and the reason why is because as a group we all become experts so quickly when we share hands-on knowledge and technique.
The group meeting would most easily occur at one of the member's homes or even at a public place that preferably would allow us to set up a table or two. In the good weather months, this can be outside or even in a park setting. The beauty of honing razors is that it does not necessarily require electricity, although for documentation purposes this is usually a help. These days we all have battery power.
My shop is always open, it is in a garage, and others might have a similar setup.
Any thoughts?
