Thread: Razor stand for $3.95

Hey Guys,

I thought I would show off my handy work here I've been in need of a small stand to hold a few razors, 1 of which being a new Kamisori. So I went to Michaels and picked up some pine strips for about $4 and with a couple knives, mitre saw, and some glue I got to work!

This thing only took me about an hour to put together and it's by no means meant to be a beautiful artisan piece of work. It's really just a quick and dirty stand that will hold my razors as they need. Its shown holding 2 standard razors and 1 kamisori but could easily do 3 standard razors instead. I just notched the top out a bit to handle the Kami.



It may look like the Kami blade is contacting the stand but I assure you the cutting edge is held very securely and is not touching anything but air.

You have pretty razors

I think it's a great idea , for a quick , and easy razor stand . However , I don't think it's a good idea for the kamisori . That edge pointing up is an accident waiting to happen .

I really like this! A simple design that doesn't take up much space. Thanks for sharing!

I've been thinking about building something similar but instead of sitting on the countertop I've been playing with the idea of having it wall mounted. Basically build a rectangular frame with hooks or mitered wooden hooks similar to what you have. Yours looks good and you can't beat the price.

Hey Scookum, that's a good idea. You would probably mimic what I did but with a better wood (not pine) and drill some holes in the back into a stud or anchor. While you're at it, why not bend some wire underneath to hold your brush(es)?

Hey fchan

That a nice looking piece. If you want it to have a more polished look you probably could get some cloth from Michael's and contact cement. And cover the whole thing with the cloth

Is that balsa wood?

Good idea, I'm off to the shop!

The imagination of the members here always give me motivation.
Well done!!!
