    Double Edge Razor Score Today.

    I have a Merkur 34G and love it. I have only ever shaved with 3 different DE’s so I don’t have a lot to compare to.

    Double Edge Razor Score Today.

    I have been shaving with a DE razor for 10-15 years now and have been looking into getting something new. I did quite a bit of research and a lot of people swear by the Gillette Slim and Fatboy. Since these have not been made in a long time the only option is to find a vintage one. Sure there is...

    Good Coffee & Good Inexpensive Machines?

    My current setup is a Hario V60, coffee gator kettle, Greater Goods scale, and a Fellow Ode gen 2 grinder. I was using my trusty Bunn for years and in the last year I found myself not enjoying my coffee as much as I used to. Come to find out the Bunn just doesn’t get the water hot enough. I...

    Smoking, Grilling, and BBQ

    I built this smoker around 2008 and is my go to smoker. It weighs about 600lbs. I have a Treger but find myself always using my offset. I primarily use Hickory splits. I do about any meats. Brisket, pulled pork, ribs, pork belly, wings and more. I also cook a lot over an open campfire. Best...

    Roll Call for Musicians!

    Played trumpet french horn and electric bass in high school. Dabbled on acoustic guitar banjo and piano over the years. But I have been doing live pro audio for large concerts and festivals since high school. It’s the only thing I became decent at.

    Pipe Ashtray Restoration.

    I’m sure a dark stain will look nice also. If you would like to make the grain pop more you may need to sand just a bit deeper. Once it’s sanded wipe a wet cloth on it and that will give you a close preview of what it would look like with Tung oil.

    Pipe Ashtray Restoration.

    I’m not sure. I couldn’t find any markings on it. I replaced the felt on the bottom and didn’t see anything under the old either.

    Help Regarding Pipe Shops in Columbus Ohio

    Pipes and pleasure is kind of a joke these days. Both Barclays are decent. Tinder box Easton has some pipes and bulk tobacco along with a few tins. The other Tinder Box is better.

    I have taken mine apart and ran them on a strop. It seemed sharpen it up a bit but I’m not sure it was a measurable amount.

    My New, Old, Classic Cassette-Deck

    My thoughts exactly about tapes. She asked me if I wanted to buy them and I quickly said no but I would see if I could get couple of bucks out of it for the lot for her. I’m going into town tomorrow and there is a store that sells vintage media. They want to look at them.

    Jim's C&D Steamworks Small Batch 2024 Review.

    None of my tins from the last release had mold and I enjoyed it a lot. I recently had a conversation with Jermy and he told me some of the great measures they go through without adding more additives to prevent mold. I have never had a C&D tin to have mold so I picked up 15 tins this release.
