The 2nd Annual Williams Mug Soap 3017 Challenge!

@heysi

Just a heads up.

There has been anger and grumbling amongst the ranks of the International Mohawked Soapbunnies Guild for a portrayal lacking any special attempt at realism.

I apologize....the portrayal was spontaneous and abrupt. Without proper preparation, I couldn't be expected to reasonably portray @Spider with any kind of decent quality. I will attempt to keep the proper hair dyes on hand from now on. I hope the Guild will accept my humble apology.

 

[heysi]

Exactly! @heysi you've seen my videos..... all I do is ramble.

The Guild is known to be kind, compassionate, and merciful. They accept your apology without imposing penalty

Thank goodness. If the penalty was a mohawk, it would have been embarrassing since the top of my head is quickly becoming devoid of hair to maintain one.

This forum ain't big enough for more than one mohawk...... But, a reverse mohawk, now that would be unique!

That looks like it could start a fire.

Missed my chance to make this exact joke by 20 minutes.

Took a break from the Williams today, but based on yesterdays checkin, being 44 shaves, I would bet this lasts until the end of March.

 

[OpusX]

Today was 56 shaves (I skipped St Pats for another soap), and things are still going strong. Vintage Williams is built to last.

Here's a quick tutorial of my method for anyone that is still having any trouble with building a good lather from Williams. It takes me less than 4 minutes to get the kind of lather that made this stuff world renown since 1840.

Brilliant!

 

[OpusX]

We have a donut hole people! 69 shaves in on this puck and it looks like we may be getting closer to the finish line.

 

[Spider]

Crazy how long that has lasted you. Makes me have second thoughts about next year's 3017.

 

[OpusX]

Seems a solid vintage puck is our TEOTWAWKI go-to soap.

 

[heysi]

Mine looks about like that...but I've been mixing in other soaps during the on-going 3017. The vintage pucks last much longer than the modern pucks, by far. I'm now regretting only having two other vintage pucks.....I may need to go vintage Williams hunting.

Go get you some!

 

[OpusX]

Believe it or not this soap is still going after 81 shaves. Today the thinning ring in my mug broke up and had to be smashed together to continue. Looks like just a few more left until this is done.

 

[Spider]

Crazy!

 

[Luecke3262]

@OpusX maybe this may have been a super old puck or maybe one that somehow was more compressed than any other? Though with the Williams process, I can’t imagine any variance in production quality. I’d say your superior lather skills are producing excellent results with a great soap!
