Razor roll i made out of a pencil roll!

So..i have been wanting a razor roll..but with me being a student i have a LOW budget on things (i have spent whole paychecks on razors thanks to RAD) Soo i decided to go to Texas Art Supply in the Montrose neighborhood of Houston. I found this Derwent Pencil Wrap for $14 plus tax! I got a 10% for being a student so i just payed a little more than $13! when i got home i got my Xacto knife and went to town! All i really did was cut out every other seem and presto! straight razor roll! i only have 5 now waiting to get a little more dinero so i can pay Undream for the two of my razors he restored last week so i can have my seven day team! Comments & opinions please!

Hello vvti713:
That is a smart set up. Amazing how creative the mind can be given the opportunity. Good show.

Great job.

You might consider sewing a piece of material on to the bottom flap so it will go up and cover the razors. This will prevent the scales from rubbing against each other. Anyone with a sewing machine can do it in about five minutes. Depending on the width of the roll, a small kitchen or hand towel cut in half length-wise might be ideal. Just a thought.

Thanks for sharing!

Happy Shaving!

Very good idea on the razor roll. I just might have to steal that concept :)

On my suggestion for attaching a towel, it struck me: Why not use Velcro? Then you can easily remove the towel to wash it. That makes more sense. Use sticky backed Velcro on the case and stitch the Velcro to the towel. Good Luck!

Beautiful collection!!!

Happy Shaving!
