    Very nice box. I wish I had the skill to make myself one like it...

    By the way, I used to have a vintage box like that, and I found it was helpful to put some padding inside the lid in order to hold the razors in place (sort of grab the tails) so they didn't "clink" around, but my box was small and I carried it around a bit. May not matter for a big one like yours.

    It's meant to be stationary so it won't need padding. I was thinking about making a mesh net to hold some of that silica stuff that ships with electronics to absorb moisture.
