Custom wooden razor box
A millwork shop is behind my business. A fine cabinetmaker, Tomas, worked there and made me 3 Corian boxes in the past to house my bone, silver, and pearl 7-day sets. I had hopes of making two more sets, of horn and ivory.
Sadly, Tomas went to another job. Thought I had seen the last of him.
He showed-up yesterday with this walnut box with a glass top.
NOW, I have to fix his air conditioner!
Good box to house the 7 nice ivory Sheffields I have collected. They are too big for a standard 7-day box, this will work out nice. Restoring and honing them will be a good winter project.

Nice box. It's handy when people know just what to bring for trading.

That's totally awesome Tom, but where are the ports for the digitally operated humidity control system? And the jacks for the nitrogen preservation system? Dare I mention lighting?!
If you ask me, with inflation, the state of union organizations, the current state and time of our political process here in the U.S. of A., not to mention the price of tea in far off lands... you are doing this guy no favors by allowing this trade... might as well call him to take back that beautiful piece of razor displaying awesomeness!!!“You must unlearn what you have learned.”

No MikeT, you just get some of those moisture absorbing gel packs & put 'em in with your razors. I do that.
