Thread: Wife approved honing station !!!

Don't know how your house works, but in mine it is rather simple

"Happy Wife Happy Life"

Wifey was beginning to give me some flak about having the hones always out on the coffee table, and here I thought is was working well

Spend much of they day in the shop working on restores and stacking razors for honing each night, figured after dinner I spent a few hours after dinner watching TV with her and honing razors..
She of course didn't see it that way, she saw an extension of the workshop in her Living room and that is where the fight started (you have heard those jokes right)

Anyway I came up with a simple solution

"The Honing Tray"



I built is to fit all the tools I need and it is simple to pick up off the coffee table and move out of sight so the wife is happy.. Waterproof outdoor paint and a few coats of Spray Poly should keep it in shape for some years.. Hopefully it might give you an idea if your better half has had it with hones all over the house

***Laying a towel under everything there is the normal way, but I left it out so you could see the tray***
