My New Scuttle

[ptxAggie08]

So I went to my local potter here in Plano, TX and designed a scuttle with him. (He had never heard of one)

We talked about concept, dimensions, style, and color. Today, after patiently waiting a few weeks, I went and picked it up today. To me, it looks very similar to those that are discussed on the B&B, but it was around half price of what I have seen online. Let me know what you think!

Oh, and it holds heat quite nicely!

looks pretty nice to me

I really like the pseudo-rustic look! Let us know how it works for you!

 

[thunderball]

Wow, that looks great!

Looks really sharp! I'm doing the same and am having a scuttle made by the wife of a coworker. Supposed to be for Christmas, but more likely for Valentine's Day.

 

[Pine.Clad.Hills]

Sharp as a tack! Well done, makes me think I should check out some local artist, see if they can do the same for me

Very nice looking! I also had one custom made and it was a great experience.

 

[Ru4scuba?]

Thats awesome looking! How cool and at half the price????? What a steal!

 

[MWS]

Great looking scuttle! Let us know how you make out with it. I'm still up in the air on getting one for myself...

Nicely done! Looks very similar to a Moss Scuttle.

You may find the water volume may not be quite enough when it's really cold in the house. When that happens I just place mine on a cup warmer. This keeps the whole scuttle nice and warm while still keeping the brush safely away from direct heat. That is to say, I would never suggest just placing a coffee cup on a cup warmer and dropping your brush in it - you'll fry the tips of your brush. I know this first hand. By using a scuttle the brush is kept away from the heat source. Just make sure your outlet is on a ground fault circuit - dont' want to get zapped.

Nice job. It's great to work with local artisans to create one-of-a-kind pieces. I'm inspired. I may have to stop by Sunset Canyon Pottery in Dripping Springs and see if they'll make me one.

I was thinking the same thing about Sunset Canyon, We go out there every year around this time to get pieces for my mother-in-law for Christmas!

Very nice scuttle, good luck with it! Very personal when you did it like that

 

[ptxAggie08]

I like it a lot, and I cant believe how insulated it is. Definetly the best way to keep your lather warm...

It's beautiful!

Enjoy!

What a great Idea to custom-make a scuttle. You inspired me to look around for a local pottery!


Happy shaving!

Let me know if they're game for making one - I'd buy one. That's two customers!

Very nice looking scuttle! I really like the color.

I use my scuttle every shave. I think that one looks great. Is it going to be offered for sale?
