Pre-shave: Hot Towel
Brush: Wild West Brushworks Oceano
Razor: Henson AL13
Blade: RK Stainless
Soap: P&B Imperial Rum
Post-shave: P&B Imperial Rum Balm

The Henson AL13 is a great razor to use, very smooth and efficient. Being made from aerospace grade aluminum, it is so light there's hardly any weight in it at all which, is a bit of a downer for those that love a heavy razor like myself.

This image pretty much sums up our building progress. Yes we're progressing but very slowly. Materials and contractor availability are still the issues for the builder. We should've been in last Oct/Nov. Hoping we're in for Christmas.

That mist is looking mighty chilly @Gargravarr
We are hitting chilly sub 20 degrees here in the tropical Top End a beautiful summers day down south :)
Time to break out a scuttle to keep the lather warm between passes

Razor: ATT Windsor Pro
Blade: Feather (2)

Nice evening shave. During the hot Aussie summer, Asian Plum can be brutally cloying. On a cold and rainy winter-day it's alright.
