Joel,

I love the JF soap.

Rich,

I'm stealing your pic!

Substitute the Vulfix with a Shavemac #181 Silvertip.
Green TUB instead of Green Tube
Add Azzaro Pure Lavender EDC.
Everything else is the same...right down to a blue towel!

Oh, Rich...Mortons Salt in the Shaving Den? Water Softener?

Yep, the water here in Alabaster (as Ron loves to needle me) is amazingly hard, and I haven't ponied up for an inline water softening unit yet. So far it seems to do a good job, preventing my 2234 from gunking up nearly as badly as my SMF I was before I started salting.

Fatboy and Derby
SMFII
C&E Almond Oil
GFT Coral Skin Food

Probably the best lather I have ever gotten using the SMFII so far. I know it looks skimpy in the picture, but that's after two passes, and I rub the sides of the brush against the edge of the bowl to get the lather out from inside the brush and redistribute to the tip.
