SSilcox Acrylic Brush/DE/Straight Stands

Item Description

So what's the next thing you need after your razors, brush, soap and cream? Something to display your collection with.

Ok some of the "commercially available" ones out there are nice, but they come at a price and they only ever hold 1 razor.

And what better way to get a stand than to support a fellow B&B member ??

These stands are customisable by Shane depending on your needs.
Things you can specify:
No of brushes
No of DE razors
No of Straight razors
( and any combintation of above )

He's even done a "toothbrush forest" :tongue_sm

and you get a choice of colour AND he'll engrave them for free :w00t:

My latest is a 4DE, 1 Brush to replace my 2 DE, 1 Brush

He's got a bunch of "standard" templates but if you need something outside that he's more than willing to help.

Great communication and fast shipping, even to Australia.

I couldn't find a better looking, more economical stand anywhere but of course as with everything on B&B YMMV :tongue_sm

A great accessory from a great B&B member :thumbup:

Latest reviews

I got a 3 brush, 2 razor in smoke. All the cuts were clean and neat, and I couldn't be happier with this stand for the price.

My only concern would be durability, and that only because it is acrylic.

Great stand for the money!

All I can say that I was very satisfied with Shane's work and his customer service repoire was excellent when I called him at his establishment. Before, I had a converted wood pipe stand (which was OK), but Shane made me a custom 1 razor - 2 Brush stand in 'smoke' color (he has other colors too), with engraving ("A Great Lather is Half the Shave"), which is perfect for my shave den. :thumbup:

Also, I really like the simplicity and overall shape of his stands. The price can't be beat (my stand cost about $23US w/ shipping), and the quaility is 'top notch' plus they are designed to never tilt/fall over regardless what type of custom stand you desire and I quite sure this stand (because it is acrylic), will outlast my lifetime and then some. :lol1:

I special ordered a 4 straight razor only stand.

Price: You can get a custom stand for about what you would spend on a generic toothbrush holder. It's hard to beat the prices.

Quality/Durability: Some people may prefer the look of metal/wood for their stands but the acrylic used in these stands will most likely stand up to moisture and chemicals better than the former. I can not see any flaws in the cutting and shaping of the material.

Performance/Usefulness: The stand is fairly compact, holds the straights in place well, and cleans easily. Thought the base is not weighted, it is designed in such a way that it is not at all top-heavy and fairly hard to tip over.

Packaging: It arrived packed more than adequately to prevent any damage in shipping.
