How about making a nice towel rail to hang your hot towel on post-use? Could use the fancy bit at ends for the bar.

Glen, I like those sugar dishes... I'm going to have to go find a few, yes I am...

How well would you say that a standard soap Puck (say TOBS Sandalwood) would fit it without melting? (I ask because the TOBS already has a rounded/half-sphere shape, and I am terrible at the double boiler.. I could just grate it, but how well does the dome of the TOBS or other soaps like it fit in?)

Thanks!

Fits just fine.

Here of some shots of my shave "den" at my new apartment. I hate the tiny sink, but I make do.

The pink toothbrush and the massive thing of lotion belong to the gf...

Holli, hoW come you have a light switch in the middle of your mirror? I'd never seen that before! Cool.

The man in my mirror was off doing something else when I took the photo. He's usually around, and he's great to talk to.

Here's the finished product. My new shave den shelf.



And a closer look.



And finally, Mama's stuff back where it belongs.



Not too bad for $13.00 worth of lumber and a few evenings work.

Looks nice Zacsdaddy.
How did you finish the wood?

Zacsdaddyis that Cedar?

Finished with one coat of polycrylic then buffed with 2000 grit emery.

The wood is Red Gum or Eucalyptus camaldulensis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
