I have been wanting a holder for more than 1 SR. I saw the wiki on making a holder out of a toothbrush holder but never got around to trying it. Today as I was picking a couple items up at a local store I saw some holders that were designed to hold newer battery operated toothbrushes and thought I would give it a try... it works. There are multiple styles available but here is the one I picked up.

Very nice! I use an old pipe rack, and a chemistry test tube holder for mine.
I use a similar toothbrush rack. Works well. I wish it had a wider base though -- I worry about bumping it and spilling al my blades. :-)
I can understand that but it isn't any less wide or secure than the brush/razor holder I am currently using, which is in the background of a couple of the pictures.Quote:

I like that idea, it looks great too! I have been looking for quite some time now for a 3 piece holder for mine! I'm still hunting though lo
The white "cup" portion of the bottom is a ceramic type of material and already has a little bit of heft to it. I intentionally bumped it a couple times and while the razors moved a little it did not tip. I don't think it will be an issue unless it hit pretty hard. I will say that I am thinking about drilling some holes to place the tang in to keep them from sliding, otherwise I am very happy with it. I may pick up a few more to hold some of my other razors.Quote:

Instead of drilling the cup, maybe try some of that grippy shelf liner stuff. Or drill a thin piece of wood and drop that in the bottom.
here is the link to the little plastic jobs I have been using...similar concept. Mine has round openings so I cut one of them out with my dremel to hold the brush, and I have since put in the grippy shelf liner stuff. Works great at keeping them from sliding around http://straightrazorpalace.com/custo...ush-stand.html
That's elegant! Which 'local' store?
I got this particular one from a Target, but I'm sure similar ones can be found at other comparable stores.Quote:
