    Default Brush handle made of concrete

    Hi!
    I'm studying architecture, and as a part of the education all of us went to concrete factories in Norway. While everyone else made furniture weighing over 100 kgs, my interest in shaving got the best of me!
    To make this I first turned the handle in wood (which I used on another brush). Then I casted a silicone mold over that, which later I used to cast the concrete.

    That looks great. Just when you think you seen all possible ideas, a free thinking individual such as yourself comes up with a truly interesting idea.
    I dig the look of it alot.
    Well done!!!

    That would be pretty cool! I guess the razor would end up kind of heavy though...
