Triceratops SE 3D Printed Razor

 Well, I did it again. I have ordered the new Triceratops SE Razor from a 3D Printer. The razor takes a GEM blade. Here is the automation showing how it works.


Here are some pictures from TSD. I am having mine printed in green.




Update: 28 Nov

I got the pictures of the printing. It is a little rough on the back side of the head, but that will probably sand out fine.

Box #37 Arrives in Canada

This box was commissioned for a 1950 Gillette Executive. It arrived today at its new home in Canada, and here are the pictures.





Jayaruh #419 First Lathering

 I set the knot last week, but today I did the first lathering for #419. I normally don't bowl lather, but I make an exception for the first lathering for a new brush. I used Proraso Red for this one.




Jayaruh #418 Completed

Here is Jayaruh #418 completed. After I set the knot, I did an Oxi Clean rinse/wash, towel dried, and then air dried. These pictures are post bloom.
