Do they limit how much of that stuff you can buy?

Looks like you must travel a lot..... as I have only ever heard of using these to protect your razors while traveling (not hiding them from view)..... How do you even know what razor is in each one?

I know things are a little beat up - I have seen some really nice set-ups where people have really taken the time to design and present - and IMO - whether small or large - whatever makes people happy - that is what is best for them.

But for me - it is cool because I remember my dad every time I grab some shaving gear - he had this dresser for as long as I remember. But - if I am honest, heā€™d probably razz me for what I use it for - he had one Gillette Fatboy or slim (that I canā€™t remember) - a can of foam, and aqua Velva, old spice, or English Leather - depending on the occasion (See he collected AS back in the 70s!)

Thankfully I converted my dad, @Ozark.flyflinger so he doesnā€™t really give me any trouble over my den lol

Hoping to have my den unpacked and all set up this week, but we will see!

From a synth menthol perspective - I would buy 2-4 bottles at a time as sales came upā€¦ā€¦.

From a razor case perspective - I know it doesnā€™t make sense- just use them because I think they look nice, I have a few razors out for revamp or polishing - but I keep a PPT diagram of each razors location (the very top doesnā€™t quite match because of the way to fit on the slide).But in principal - first row is adjustable razors, 2nd role is 2 piece and 3 piece razors, and everything behind it is either straight, shavette, or ā€vintageā€ DE

I'm thinking with my workshop in shambles and the need to build a new workbench, most of my straights, especially the project razors(75% of my collection) will need to stay in their boxes. I still have at least 5 boxes of shaving items and vintage decor/mugs/soaps awaiting an unpacking....

You should build a cedar storage system, with humidity control like youā€™d do for storing good cigars šŸ˜‚
