DIY travel case for brush

[thisguy]

Hi there. I just made the switch to a DE a week and a half ago and I absolutely love it!

WELL....I'm going out of town tomorrow and realized I'm going to need something to put my brush in. I opened my medicine cabinet and quickly spotted my old can of 'goo'. I emptied it out, removed the label, popped off the nozzle with a screwdriver and sliced the top off with a dremel tool. Then I smoothed out the inner lip with the dremel's grinding wheel. After that I simply drilled holes in the top and bottom and, viola, my furry friend is ready to hit the road!

Here are some pics:

Brilliant! Much better use for those horrid cans.

Now that is different. What a neat way to carry your brush.

that might just make me buy a dremel. way to stick it to the generation of goo users.

 

[mankini]

great way to repurpose the evil cans of goo

Nice Job!

 

[Nicks&Cuts]

Great idea mate! Beats the ol' toilet role wrapped in gaff tape.

 

[jsrdrnr]

awesome... what sized can is that? The cans I used to use seemed larger than that. Id actually consider buying a new can just to dump the goo and do this

it's just a travel sized can of fusion gell. Bed Bath and Beyond is a great place to find travel sizes. They have a huge selection.

I SHOULD point out that if your brush pokes out of the can a bit like mine does (vulfix super badger) you should exercise caution when putting the cap on. Just set the cap in place loosly and spin it once or twice before popping it into place. This way you'll avoid munching those precious badger hairs. (that sounded dirty for some reason) :/
