Post your shave dens!

Yep. It is 114 year old barn wood. The barn was built in 1902 and was made with oak trees from the property we now own...
TriggerMan:
Awesome...you have a real connection and antique wood!

Here's why you ought to go through the Shave Den every so often: I found this in the back of the Den today while doing an inventory; completely forgot it was there!

My original shelf has doubled (this is just the stuff I use in my rotation), and it's starting to overflow. I'already had the WoolFat fall off and smash :blushing: (got a replacement in 24h - thanks to Amazon). I'm going to design a new one and get my nephew who's a carpenter to make it for me.

Soon as it's done I'll post it, but here's my shelf at the moment.

this is the sort of thing I'm thinking of.. any suggestions to make it better?

Maybe another piece across the bottom with notches to hang your brushes from. That way you have more room in the middle to add more soaps.

My modest beginners setup -

Gear on the window is usually in cabinet above sink, sample drawer usually with its twin below the sink!

Edwin Jagger DE89 Barley razor, Knights Barbers badger brush.
Some Haslinger and Wool Fat soaps to try once the T&H is broken in.
Blade samples in bag and basket, a €1 blade bank to the right.

And that's it. For now..!
 
My little corner of the family bathroom . . .

I haven't used the Gillette Sensor in a long time.
I bought it new back in the 80's and used it
for almost 30 years. I am compelled to reserve it a
place of honor among the rest of my items.

My favorites . . .

I really enjoy using the fat boy and the slim.
 
Cream, soap, brush and blade delivery tomorrow, and I have no idea where I'm going to put it! As it is, I've probably only got about 30% of all my stuff out in the open!
