14 Razor display case
Finally finished this display case, Its been a project that has been half done for months. Now i can keep all these razors in one place and show them off a bit. The timber cost me nothing, the acrylic cover cost me nothing (I work in a sign shop), the felt and hooks were the most expensive part and that was minimal. I like the rough texture, it may not be everybody's taste but I'm really happy with it. And for the workshop boys I've included a Before picture so you can see where the timber came from
Cheers

That looks pretty nice, I look forward to the day that I have enough razors to require a nice display case.
you said you work for a sign shop; What type of signs? just vinyl signs, or LED as well?

Nicely done! My boss has a western drawing in his office with a barnwood frame that has a 45 slug in it.
Might I suggest using clear tubing to cover the hooks so they cannot scratch the scales. I've used drywall screws covered with white tubing in my gun safe.

Looks great. I think that with the vintage SRs that the rough wood is very appropriate. What's the approximate weight of the finished project?

Red was a great choice for the felt.

Very inventive to use the lumber from pallets and looks real good too.
Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.
