    Default Quick and dirty custom razor display

    So after seeing some of the creative racks, shelves, and display cases that members here have built, I decided to run down to Home Depot and put together a quick rack.

    It is a piece of laminate MDF with a shadow box wall shelf drilled on, with some prefab bathroom tiles stuck to it for a bit of flair. It will hold 6 razors plus a few brushes and a bowl or other items on/in the shelf box. I'm not a woodworker but I am resourceful, so I think it's not a bad effort for under 40 bucks and an hour's work...

    Still haven't come up with how to wall-mount it yet, but I'll figure something out. Feedback welcome...

    I would slide some form of tubing over those hooks. Repeated use will end up scratching the scales.

    As for hanging it - french cleat.

    Good effort tho.

    I like it, not sure about the hooks too, as said in an earlier post. As far as mounting you could counter sink 4 screws with anchors, and put wood plugs over the counter sunk screws, that's what I'm planning to do with mine.
