Thank you Sir.

I ran across the display a couple of weeks ago at a flea market. They wanted $15 for it, when I plugged it in, the light didn't work and it didn't rotate. They said they would take $10 as is, so I figured what the heck. When I got home, I plugged it in, the light came on, and it started to rotate. Win,Win! I was expecting it to slowly rotate, but this one turns a 1/4 turn then stops for about 15 seconds then then rotates another 1/4 turn.
 
I just moved, and bought a couple new display cases so I can expand. I’m still unpacking stuff, but here is what I have so far.

Just razors: Top-Bottom: Ever-Ready, GEM, Gillette, all others.

No doubt it activates The Cone of Silence, so that no one can hear him shaving.

"What was that?"

"What?"

"What was that you said?"

"When?"

"What you said! Just now!"

"I said, 'It activates The Cone of Silence, so no one . . .' Oh, never mind."

Now that's funny!

I really got into things right before Thanksgiving. Prior to this I lived by VDH brush, 23c, and proraso red or green. Thanks for enabling me!

I don’t think this qualifies as a “den” just yet. More of a small shelf! But I had none of this a week or so ago, so quite happy so far.

The den is growing 4 weeks on from when I started!

My collection of straights is much more addicting and expensive than DEs. I’ve evolved into a preference for them and I’m comfortable with the shaving and stropping. I haven’t dived into honing; still hiring that out. Re the racks, I got them off Etsy. I wish I had the talent to create my own. Good luck with your str8s.
