Happy Birthday Fuzzy !!!

   

I recently picked up a gem featherweight early model at a local yard sale, I've done head shaves before with the later model I have with the green handle and the aluminum cap. I find it to be a little too mild, this one's a little bit better but not by much but I did get a good head shave in the end with a couple of micro weepers.

I suppose this is the best place to post this. 
I finished making this spring bronze wedge blade adapter to hold a modern                 Gem blade for my Torrey Safety razor today.

Howdy all, 
Figured I'd pull up a chair and talk for a few. 
Been interesting times these last few months, promotion at work( whole lot more responsibility and pressure) but last November I stepped down to a lower position and less stress, or so I thought. Found out it's about the same stress and less money, but I enjoyed it until the last 4 months. 
Well long story short put in my notice and the 17th of this month I start a new position. 
Looking forward to it immensely, going to work for a non profit organization Habitat for Humanity as director of their restore. That's the thrift shop for those that may be wondering. 
This will mean a set schedule , more money, and the chance to actually spend time with the family, as well as hopefully being able to pump out more shave videos as well. 
This last year has been rough, but sometimes you just gotta keep pushing through and tread water into you make it. 

That's all for now, but I'm looking forward to the next adventure.

New little SE in the Den today. Loaded with a fresh GEM PTFE blade.
