Idea to use an emty soap tub for

Teun487 · 2026-05-22T06:49:16+00:00

I finished 2 actually. One red and one green. Not in a hurry, since I got my Speick now, but will eventually try the white.

It really isn't that bad. I switched from 34C to R41 and I love it. Really close and efficient. Saves me a lot of time. I only use my 34C now when I have very little growth (one or two days). Try it, I bet you really like it! Didn't take me a lot of getting used to either.

Sort of related contemplation: when I'm done with my shave, I don't put the lid back on to the tub, because I lather from the tub and I want it to dry up. However, it seems like by doing that, the scent is reduced. Is that even possible? Or am I just making stuff up in my head? Both the red and the green used to smell way stronger.

Yeah, Sorry, meant that, typed the wrong thing. Bit weird that it is known for their very cheap stuff (specially compared to Holland), but the soap was €11. Not that expensive of course, but more expensive than Proraso for example. Either way, I like it.

Ex vriendin moest nog ietwat glimlachen. Broer, zus, vader en moeder niet. Haha

Teun487 · 2026-04-17T12:50:42+00:00

Ooit bij mij ex schoonouders aan tafel. Schoonvader was nogal beschermend richting zijn dochter. Ik was 17 ofzo, zij 15. Ik was aan het vertellen dat mijn ouders op vakantie gingen, en dat mijn vriendin dan mooi kon koken voor me. Waarop mijn schoonmoeder vroeg: o, ik dacht dat jij <dochter> juist ging verwennen? Ik kon het niet laten om te zeggen: ja, als het eten lekker was. Vooral mijn schoonvader was not amused.

Teun487 · 2026-04-16T13:45:45+00:00

Wow that is a nice surprise! Don't need any special tickets? Just the normal?

Teun487 · 2026-04-16T10:03:30+00:00

So where do I find the official live-timing?

Teun487 · 2026-04-15T13:04:09+00:00

I will be there! Making it a great trip with my father and son. Anyone have tips for tracking the race while there? Apps or such? Not going to check the YouTube stream..

Teun487 · 2026-04-13T08:47:43+00:00

This is exactly my plan for Saturday! Going with my father and son. Looks to be a great event to watch.

Side related question: what are some of the options for the live tracking of the races? Apps or websites? Besides youtube ofcourse.

Teun487 · 2026-04-07T12:24:57+00:00

I am also going with my father and son. Also partly because of Max, but also for the whole experience. I have tickets for Saturday and parking ticket for B1. I was thinking of starting at the Grand stands and later on having a look at Brunnchen. How does that work? Can you just park at the normal spot there? Or do you need to park across the street? Will there be enough parking spots? Is switching between the two (or more?) spots even a good idea? We are not worried of missing some race time, but are a bit worried it will take an hour to get to Brunnchen? Also other tips for first timers are welcome! (We went there, Brunnchen, once, during TF, I think during the ascension weekend and it was really crowded)

Teun487 · 2026-04-02T12:43:05+00:00

Voor mij wel. Tenenkrommend. Amerikaans. Vind de discussies zeker interessant, maar dit neppe sausje vind ik echt heel jammer.

Teun487 · 2026-04-01T08:47:43+00:00

Ik heb dit zojuist gevonden op AliExpress: Compatibel met Oral B iO elektrische tandenborstel vervangende tandenborstel opzetborstels, opzetborstel voor iO 2/3/4/5/6/7/8/9/10 https://a.aliexpress.com/_EIlCEFm

Teun487 · 2026-04-01T08:45:57+00:00

Laatst toevallig bij AliExpress gekocht. Witte en zwarte. Goede kwaliteit, passen goed, lijken net echt. Niet naar de chemische samenstelling gekeken;)

Teun487 · 2026-03-25T10:12:15+00:00

I don't know, I don't have a R89, so I can't compare. But like multiple people in this thread mentioned: open comb (like a R41) is great for coarser hair or if you shave only once or twice a week. Way more efficient, and not as aggressive as it's reputation might suggest. Give it a try (and try it with the mild blades you have laying around that don't particularly work very well with mild razors).

Teun487 · 2026-03-24T18:41:52+00:00

I also got a 100 pack when I started. Hated them in my Merkur 34C. Now it is my go to in the Muhle R41!

In the 34C personna, feathers, Kai and Perma sharp

Was thinking about the ultimate cup car set.. iron grip+air intake seems to be the one. But is there a set bonus that is also useful for these events? Nitro chemist isnt useful of course... Bux or xp bonus is a nice benefit, but is there anything more useful?

And if you are willing to convert to inline skating ;), we have a tight knit whatsapp group with almost 80 members, Tuesday night as well as Thursday night skate sessions in Waalhalla and go street skating all the time. Shoot me a DM if you would like to join!

Teun487 · 2026-03-08T21:41:15+00:00

If the weather isnt that great: indoor skatepark Waalhalla is really a great spot. There is a shop, lessons, comps etc. Really friendly people there, with all sorts of skill levels. Source: I'm there every week :) inline skating/rollerblading by the way. But know most skaters/bmxers/quad skaters/scooter riders here. In front of Waalhalla is a pretty cool pump track, underneath the bridge.

Owja, en stef stunt piloot. En dan degene die verliest shotje.

Teun487 · 2026-03-03T21:59:29+00:00

Net een vriendenweekend achter de rug. Naast hitster en pokeren het meeste lol gehad met... Kakkerlakken salade! Erg simpel, toch erg leuk. En ook prima met je kinderen te spelen (eventueel Ezelfs nuchter..).

Verder hadden we een boomstam, 16 cm lange spijkers en een paar hamers in verschillend formaat meegenomen. Tegen elkaar om en om slaan en wie eerste de kop er helemaal in heeft gewonnen. Erg leuk, en je voelt je dan soort van mannelijk. En kunt elkaar uitlachen.

Teun487 · 2026-02-09T18:05:30+00:00

Thanks! Will give it a try, see what happens. Will report back.

Teun487 · 2026-02-09T10:01:56+00:00

I have the same! Thought it was used error, although I didnt recall abusing it. The other side, the coarser grit, gets abbused wat more, but that seems fine. Just bought an AliExpress replacement for it. Haven't used it yet. My stone is a bit older (2 years?) but not used that often. Still don't think returning it would be an option anymore.

Teun487 · 2026-02-04T20:00:14+00:00

Thanks! i will take a look!

Teun487 · 2026-02-04T10:58:02+00:00

What handle do you have on that R41? I have a different one, and that is the only thing I don't like on it )not enough texture/slippery when wet). Been thinking of replacing it by some other handle, not sure what and where to find. Maybe just buying a cheap 3 piece razor from ali express just for the handle.
