Thread: The latest addition I made for my shave den / 1/2 of the bathroom

Nice work and design. I have looked a couple of times and haven't figured out where her area is.

That is her area over there. Not that she is being over run. she has a vanity same as mine. the counter top in the middle is a -DMZ- that she owns The center counter top was the area that I was encroaching on.

My razors have always been off limits for use on legs. If she took up straights she would develop R.A.D. and I could then buy her the ones I know she wouldn't like and never use. Thus I would be the loving husband that just didn't understand her needs. I would be forced to have to use those old razors she didn't like so they would not go to waste. I could then double my Razors while thinking of her.

This reminds me of the Simpson's episode where Homer gets Marge a bowling ball for her birthday. He has his own name engraved on it just in case

Real nice set up. I may use parts of it someday. Will wait till I have my own Den though. Hairspray ... yuck :<0)

abosolutely original design. looks great!

Awesome man! Lack of space makes us get creative with our use of it with this hobby!

That's quite a collection you have. Scares me though, my wife would make me dust it twice a week.
