What do you cats think? I think it might help to pick up our spirits during these tough times.

My First Post on TOST3 Lather Catcher Sunday's Shave
Proraso Red Shave Soap
Jayaruh #340
Gem Jr. Bar Lather Catcher
Vintage Gem Cutlery SE
CWR
Pinaud Lilac Vegetal AS
The Proraso Red Shave Soap face-lathered well with Jayaruh #340 brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Gem Jr. Bar Lather Catcher with a Vintage Gem Cutlery SE blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Pinaud Lilac Vegetal AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

This Kampfe Bros/Star Lather Catcher is one of my newest acquisitions and a favorite. I had an excellent shave with it today using the vintage Star wedge.
I restored the case. I had to repair the snap and finish the outside including the cloth hinge. The inside was in pretty good condition. I just had to refresh the fabric.
Here it is before the restoration.
The cloth hinge is worn out.

Soooo. I got busy and this got by me. How do you want to set up the day? Same day every month? Maybe the first Sunday of the month or another day of the week?

What does everyone else think?
I know thats cool with Sir Jay. He uses a Lather Catcher EVERY Sunday, ? That is correctomundo, Bird Man.
And we need a penalty for whoever doesn't comply!!? I don't know about penalties though. The penalty would be not using one.
