How My Wife Enables Me
Sharing here a few thoughtful ways my wife has supported the hobby...
Razor and brush rack for my birthday, which helps immensely avoiding oxidation out here by air drying the razors:
As a gift for my recent promotion, she had a local woodworker make a large rosewood chest to hold all of my hones and stones. She even made little socks for the loose stones!

Thanked: 3222Everyone should have a wife that is so supportive. That local "woodworker" is a little more than just a woodworker I think. Wonderful chest that.

Yes, he's a Pakistani fellow... The letters in the chest are actually brass engravings. When I first saw it I thought it was painted... he's quite good.

Thanked: 552You win on at least two counts: having such a supportive mate and having a mate who knows such a talented wood artisan.
Congratulations.David
