    I can't wait to see the bowl, I have never thought of using a 3D printer to make shaving stuff before. That DE blade holder is pretty cool.

    Sorry for the long wait
    But I received today a package from the 3d printer.( Jeey!!)

    At first i thought that package looks a bit small to fit all the things inside.
    So i opened it quickly, and after unpacking I noticed that the shaving bowl is waay to small.
    I can't even fit my brush inside, i don't know where it has gone wrong. Probably misjudged the dimension I think, I have a tendency to make things too small.

    The second thing in the package was my stand for the straight razors. And I am really pleased with the result.
    I think it looks great, even better with the straight on it.
    I'm thinking about of painting it black, I don't know yet.

    so here some pictures:

    Now that's pretty cool. The style of the bowl came out great. Just a little larger and you'll be in business! Thanks for sharing.
    I love living in the past...

    The bowl and stand look great! To bad about the bowl, but if you bump it up a few inches it should be great!
    The older I get the more I realize how little I actually know.

    Thanx for all the great replies!!!

    I think I will make the bowl twice as big, and perhaps the ribs at the bottom a little bit smaller.
    I don't want to damage the bristles of my brush to much.
    and probably use the idea of AndrewJM of using a lib for the brush the rest on.

    I am way more pleased how it fits now on the cabinet wall, and the lid ontop just finished it of.

    and last but not least, my new shavette made from a blue beard revenge shavette:

    I stumbled across this post. I'm looking for a wall mountable shave brush holder.

    Does anyone know where on like the above 3d printed one can be ordered?
