Hello From Burbank CA. USA

Glad to have you here Tom - your razor is truly stellar - congratulations!
 
Thanks guys.
I hope you all will give it a good thrashing. The more feed back the better. It will help me to make it better. I am still trying to figure out if I can afford this endeavor. I hope to though. It has been a total blast making it. But even more fun seeing others enjoy it.

Tom
 
Welcome to the other side of the world @twhite!

I'm fascinated as to why somebody 'fairly new' to real shaving would make their own razor - and one so stylish and 'out of the box' ???

Once our anti-spammer procedures are out of the way we would love to hear more about you and the process of designing the Bunny
 
Hey @twhite - welcome!
I've enjoyed hearing about your razor and can't wait to see you bring it into production.

What's your favourite shave gear - if you had a morning to just shave to your heart's content- what would you choose from what you have? [emoji4]

Good question. I will give you the short story right now.

When I first started on my wet shaving adventure it was only vintage DE's.
I then picked up an ER 1912 to see how they shaved. I loved it. Gave me way better shaves than any DE.

A few weeks later I picked up an early Shcick E2. That was it. For me SE's and injectors only.

So after a month of getting a few more injectors and studying them. Really just admiring them. I figured why not try to make my own. As I am a machinist by trade. I had access to the machines at work.

I originally did this just to see if I could even make one that did not maim me.

At the moment my favorite setup that would be.
Razor: PAL injecto-magic with Chinese Schick blade.
Brush: Boar 24mm knot from Whipped dog set in a 3d printed handle.
Soap: tossup between Tabac and MWF
AS: Any cheap drugstore stuff

Great stuff! Just read some of your Bunny Adventure thread you linked to in the review thread - fascinating stuff! Well outside my area of expertise though.
