I'll give that a try...It always seems anything over 22w is too hot to me, but I recently got a drip tip that has the airflow holes (Thanks LLB--hopefully tonight I'll be able to post the pic that I've been meaning to for a week now!!)

@Kodak -- is the DT with airflow the one from the TFV4 mini? I believe that one is adjustable though I never used it (switched to my FT pyrex/SS immediately ).
WOOT, GODDESS!!! That was my experience with HG too, amazing. Gave my addy to Evan on Tuesday, and Thursday morning, in my HOT lil hands.. Fabulous CS!
Open the box and you'll find an adjustable drip tip
I haven't even had time to open a box for the last 2 weeks lol! I got vapemail yesterday and it's *gasp* still sitting unopened!
Man, I have not touched my face with a real blade in 30 years. Went electric, and never looked back. That wicked looking straight razor was giving me quite a bit of trepidation..
At first I was afraid,I was petrified. Kept thinking I would never live without electra-glide...
NOT a nick, scratch, cut or burn. I CAN DO EEEEET!!! I'm feelin a lil smug, bout my silky mug.. First half dozen strokes.. whoa... and then.. just kicked in. My Cro-Magnun man just took over, and voila..

And AFTER..
Missed JUST a lil bit, couple of the Double Black Diamond slopes.. It'll come.

SACRILEGE!!! We must BURN her... PREPARE the STAKE!!
Just kiddin' hun... It took me a couple days before I got to my Target mod when it came in too... Sometimes life just happens...
Dude has cojones, shaves wearing sunglasses
I had so many lights on, from so many angles, I got a SUNtan!
Nice Bruddah! I switched to the double-edge safety razors a little while back, got the whole brush, G.F. Trumpers shave cream, a shave bowl... the whole nine yards. Love the way it feels lathering up and the smooth shave afterwards. And the barber shop I go to still does straight razor shaves, so I do that when I go in for a trim. I plan to get a straight edge soon, but haven't collected the testicular fortitude to make that attempt yet. Soon though... still need to find a razor that I like.
I have to admit, my face hasn't felt this smooth in YEARS. Lil scary, but BOY do they shave ya CLOSE!
This is what I've been using lately. Mostly the razor on the right because it's adjustable. Inherited them from my Father-in-law when he passed away last year. The bowl and brush I bought... the handle and bowl are made from buffalo horn, and the brush is best badger. LOVE that thing!
Yes! That was what I was after.. Had some straight shaves after lux haircuts, and it felt, and smelled, so wonderful. The whole process was really a thrill... the stropping has this.. soft rythmic sound, Silvertip badger brush with hot lather?!? Zomg... and the sound of the razor even, transmits right through the jawbone. Lil balm after the shave then a quick pat with some aftershave.. WAY different than just running an electric around awhile and done. It was everything I hoped it would be, and then a lil...
Prepare the steak?
Hmmmm... from my view, that steak looks mysteriously more like a pork chop. May be my screen settings though...
SWEEET! Funny how the creams and stuff, come in SUCH retro looking packaging. Definitely feels like a step WAY back in time. I'm sure my Great Grandpa is up there, lookin down on me and thinking.. DaF?!?! What is WRONG wif that boy!? 200 years of progress, and THIS? Next thing, be putting a BONE in his nose..
Sorry Gramps, I'm not doing Emo till I'm 60...
Yep, kinda get the same sound in the razor with the DE... not quite as intense, but it's there. That Trumper's shave cream is AWESOME! Soak the brush, put a little cream in the bowl and float it in the hot sink water, then whip it up... it's a subtle sandalwood scent. Then follow it up with Clubman aftershave or a good Bay Rum... definitely feel like a new man when you step away from the sink!
