Hey Dave,

Just a short shout out to you as the internet is terrible here where I am camped near Traverse City MI. We passed through KY on our way up here and I thought of you. I read that you and your wife have passed quite a milestone. Congratulations buddy.

After being shut out last year due to Covid, it is a great pleasure to travel in our RV once again.

Thanks for the wishes and shout out. Glad you're out enjoying the open roads again. Life is throwing some curves our way but we trudge on
Take care !!

I’m considering starting my own 1508.5 and I’m scared that I will fail.
Are there others who are doing this?

I do have a few questions…
Is there a protocol for beginning a 1508.5?
An application process?
What are the fees involved?
Is a 1508.5 tax deductible?
Thanks,
Pete

1. Typically, the mindset is to use up one soap quickly so you and more easily justify buying two more when it’s gone. It’s not just a shaving change, it’s a lifestyle change.

2. Usually with a brush, but you can use any process you’d like. We don’t judge (yes we do…)

3. If you have to ask, you can’t afford it…

4. Yes. You can deduct the cost of the use 1, buy 2 from your next tax refund.

Eric MaineYooper loaned me the Open Comb Vector Plate and Dave likey. Just as smooth as the SB in my book and I may send Eric the funds rather than the plate back if I can wiggle it out from him.(I think he really wants to sell it anyway Big Grin) Love this soap and scent and hoping the great shave will bring a better day than the past couple...................can't hurt. Have a stupid fun day Guys !

Very pleased and happy that you like it! I tried, real hard too

But I feel the teeth too much!

Okay, not really THAT bad. Actually, it was just a bit more toothy than I like. The best I have tried are the NEW long comb that Paul (aka mrdoug) gifted me and the hybrid Yates plate.

As of right now, a small puff of air would knock me off the fence onto the side of selling! 

And now I am going to try to have a "stupid fun day" but my guess is more stupid than fun, lol!

Love a New Long Comb. You'd like a Raised Flat Bottom too but they can be pricey.
