    Lightbulb how do you arrange your shave equipment?

    What does your shave area look like? I am always looking for new ideas.
    I got the idea for pump bottles from a SRP member and also the .Name: shave cave.jpg Views: 328 Size: 27.9 KB​double mug for warming the lather. That made shaving a lot more enjoyable. Not in the picture is my leather strops and water stone with pond.

    All my shaving stuff's in the spare bedroom...wife will only let me keep the basics out, lol.

    One brush, one scuttle, one aftershave, one soap (MdC) and a few glass bottles of distilled water.

    Martin de Candre, they had a limited run with different lids a few years back (sea shell, stag, chicken and a few others) Not sure if they're still available...

    There us a thread called "show us your shave den" or something similar, that's got a lot of pics of shave dens in it.

    Try using a tiny pinch of citric acid in your shaving water instead of using distilled water. It has the effect of softening hard water. You could use a small container for the amount of citric acid you'd use. Your wife would also be really happy with the extra space gained!

    I keep all I need in a little basket that stays on my desk in my room. I never leave it in the bathroom. To keep my razors away from unwanted moister. When I feel like using a different razor I get one from my cigar box I keep my razors in. The basket is like 2 dollars. lol.
