Switched from spray bottles to a lather machine 6 months ago and wont go back

I used to think lather machines were just for the fancy shops downtown. Kept using my old spray bottle because it felt more hands-on. Then my wrist started acting up after a busy Saturday with 12 head shaves back to back. Buddy let me borrow his lather machine for a week and I noticed my lines were cleaner and I finished each shave about 3 minutes faster. Has anyone else made the switch and noticed a difference in their straight razor work?

It's funny how we resist upgrades until something forces our hand. I see it all the time with people I know - they stick with the old way until their body or schedule just can't take it anymore. Then they wonder why they didn't switch sooner.

Totally, just switched to a standing desk last week and wish I'd done it years ago.
