Won't be getting it till next week, but on another thread, Voidmonster posted a pic of the same one he has, he's got 230 razors packed in his, so I know this was exactly the right thing to order. Check it out:

If I could figure out how to get around the technological constraints I would post pics of mine.

Excellent - you've got one as well....what are you storing in it....did you get one for razors or did you already have one?

I have three, all for razors and some tools. I like them but they do have a few flaws, the drawers are to loose for my liking and the construction is not what I would prefer but the cost offsets the flaws. I want to deconstruct one so that I can figure out how to build one myself.

When I was hunting for the Gerstner Machinist chest, I found the plans to build one of your own...believe it was on eBay? Might be worth checking out...my wife won't let me touch power tools or most machines with moving parts...I like to keep her thinking that way....it's part of my, "strategic helplessness", that prevents her from assigning me to do stuff...and in the event I'm on the hook to do it, I make sure I screw it up and I remember to always hurt myself somehow.

When this thing arrives, will be organizing and definitely will post some pics....

Damn, that is where I screwed up. My wife's father couldn't build a 2x4 if you gave him plans, blue prints and a 2x4 so I am the one to do all of the repairs, most of which he causes.

I would like to see those plans.
