Repurposing Items For Shaving

[Mick]

That's a cool hack there.

Here's the 2011 post when these showed up

Look at my new scuttle!

The glue stick container looks like the ideal size for a few weeks or maybe even a month worth of shaves.

Sadly, I failed to do a before-and-after weighing, so I don't know how much it held. More than half a puck of Williams, I think.

Tip: If you're buying a glue stick for this purpose, get one that has a label that you can peel off. The LePages's one is printed right on the plastic, but the Mennen Speed-Stick shrink-wrapped label came right off.

JBunnykins coin bank = new blade bank
Dungeons & Dragons D12 die = blade use counter (Later I used the D20, then the pair of Percentile dice which go up to 100.)

The D&D die is both nerdy and brilliant. Love it!

Old Spice coffee mug and pvc pipe add up to a razor holder

And I have discovered many hand soaps do a halfway decent job as a shave soap.

And I don't even play RPGs.
I bought it in a comic shop specifically to use as a shave counter. I got an extra big set so I can read the numbers without my glasses if need be. Adhesive putty keeps them from rolling around accidentally.

Smart.

VERY true.

I like that!

So, a small hole to accept the metal stud on the back of the snowcap, a tiny drop of crazy glue turned into the semontblanc frankenbrush

I was just scrolling through this post but stopped dead in my tracks when I saw the distinctive snowcap. I got ready to google "Montblanc badger prices" when I saw who posted it, and then read the rest. Nice!

A touch of spray paint on a Mentholatum jar, cut an opening in the top and I have a blade bank.

Where did you find that?

Amazon

 

[ccpastork]

All I can think of is the Foster Sealfast Jar I use to keep alcohol from evaporating. I use it for when I want to give a razor a swish in it.

Gorgeous old piece of shop furniture, with small drawers perfect for storing razors. I am refitting with inserts for razors, one drawer at a time as my collection somehow keeps on growing

This is EPIC!!!!

That’s magnificent!

This is a £5 basket from a Danish design store - ideal for holding those razors for which I don’t have a case. Looking at the picture, I reckon that flare tip needs a go in the ultrasonic cleaner...
