    Default Razor Display Case

    Hey guys,
    Here is a small razor display case that I just put together. I got the case at a yard sale about 6 months ago, either $1.00 or $2.00, I'm not sure. I used elastic hair bands to hold the razors in. I talked to Tom last night & he advised using fishing line, but I had already made the holes. I can get the razors out fairly easy with the elastic.

    Someday I will have someone make me a nice wooden case, right now I just don't have a lot of room to hang stuff.

    Thanks for looking.

    ****I forgot to say, they are all shave ready & each gave me a nice shave. ****

    I coated the blades first with WD-40 Specialist Long Term Corrosion Inhibitor, there seems to be good reviews on that particular item.

    Nicely displayed,
    also the elasticity of the bands would allow for easy removal.

    Like the hairband idea, nice job.
    Mastering implies there is nothing more for you to learn of something... I prefer proficient enough to not totally screw it up.

    I wouldn't waste my money personally on WD-40 products. There are far better choices such as Corrosion-X which I think has no equal.

    Nice little case there ! I gave away all my hairs ties when I cut my pony tail off dang it. That looks like a great idea. WD for me too, as it replaces about 6 cans of especially made for stuff.
    Good judgment comes from experience, and experience....well that comes from poor judgment.

    My only response to that is; I would have to see for myself what these "far better choices" are & some type of a test comparison with conclusive results, before I would switch to them.

    I did not choose this product, "WD-40 Specialist Long Term Corrosion Inhibitor", because it carried the WD label. I was searching the internet for over 5 hours reading reviews & looking at tests run by many people. I was attracted to WD-40 Specialist Long Term Corrosion Inhibitor due to this test:

    Almost every man over 40 years, is dead set on what he feels is the "best" lubricant; it's like trying to tell a gun owner what's the best choice for a home defense firearm.
    I'm always willing to try something new, if the information is solid. YMMV
