Shelf to hold straight razors
I just finished this shelf yesterday to hold and display my razors in the bathroom. The one in the middle was my dad's and I put new scales on it but they are a little wide to fit the slot I cut. But all in all I am please with it. It is made out of mahogany.

Nice looking shelf. I'm using a toothbrush stand from Target that holds 3 but don't look nearly that cool.

Nice work! Much snazzier than the test-tube stands I use.

Nice but beware the steam/humidity of the Bathroom!!!!!!! Especially elevated like that.

That looks great, the design reminds me of a pipe rack...
...which gives me an idea: these guys make custom pipe racks, I bet they could be commissioned to make something for razors, say with a little drawer for touch-up hones beneath.

I have one of their racks and it is very well made.

Seconded.
