My thoughts!
Well planned though and well executed. I hope it turns out! Do you have it on a drip system?
Nope, nothing fancy like that. I just have a hose and sprayer that I have to run all the way from the house.
Ron at Chiseled Face is one of the best folks from a customer service standpoint i have ever had the pleasure to deal with and i do mean pleasure. Groomatorium is my first web store i look at when ready to buy something. Bummer you found GTB not up your ally it is one of my favorite scents and the line of soaps always performs well above average for me.
Bummer about the Chiseled Face order. I happen to really like the GTB, enough that I believe it will go down in history as one of the classics. The soap is great middle of the road stuff that gets a notch better once you get it figured out. Not the best but quite serviceable. Cryogen is one of my favorite scents, the menthol and Tallow make for a very enjoyable scent to my nose. I recently gave his bay rum a sniff...very enjoyable interpretation. I for one have never been able to use CFG samples with any success, for me it’s load from the tub or not at all... just can’t do it.
Others have said it but it but it’s true, Ron is a stellar example of how artisan shops should treat their patrons.
Next time I pack anything to go your direction I’ll send some of Ron’s newest line, Stubble Buster. It’s a fantastic and simple recipe in somewhat generic cologne like scents that he designed to be sold under $10 per tub. I dare say it performes better than the original CFG line. I think he was smart to create a separate brand/line rather than change the recipe but use the same name.
Hand watering that that garden is going to be fun. I ran drip line with various different flow rate offshoots and put a hose connection on one end. The cost was minimal and totally portable so I could remove it and rototill the put it back.

Greetings, True Believers! It's your old pal Spider-Man.
So todays shave was with a soap that was just PIF'd to me from Dagwoodz. He sent me a few things, which I will talk about in a dufferent thread. But he soap I used was Declaration Grooming/Chatillon Lux: La Quatrième Ville. Scent is good, not very strong, but pleasant. And the soap was outstanding. It creates a very good gel-like lather, which I love.
My follow up was Chiseled Face: Sherlock aftershave. Another dud. I really wanted to like this, but I just don't. I went through all of the CF aftershave samples last night, and gave them all a bottle sniff. I really don't think I'm going to like any of them. Which is weird.
The Spider's Web
I watched Deadpool 2 last night. Very good. I don't know that it is as good or better than the first as a lot of people are saying, but it's really close. If you do go see it, there are two after credit scenes which are hilarious, and there is one small thing at the very very end.

The Declaration Grooming soaps (formerly known as L&L Grooming) are outstanding performers indeed!......Too bad about the CF experiences. I like the GTB and the Santa Paula aftershaves quite a bit, but the soaps aren't "elite" status for me, but still pretty good.
Thanks for the DP2 credits tip!

I really like Chiseled Face Orange Creamsicle and another one called Cedar and Spice .There are a couple others I like, but I'm not in love with all the scents. GTB and Sherlock are not ones I like.
I'm pretty sure that one is in there. I'll try it tomorrow if it is.
I thought it was better than the 1st, another DP Winner
its the scents that I don’t care for. It’s like there’s a common scent base in all of them that I don’t like. Kinda like a lot of CC aftershaves have a common base smell.
