Thread: The Humble Abode Above the Comode!

Thought I would post a pic of what I came up with to display my razors.

It's and old pipe display case with the front door taken off (had a goofy etched glass pipe design).
Finally got the collection up where it can be seen, even if it is above the toilet for now!
Starting from the upper left: 2 Genevas, BO_RAS_IC, Wade & Butcher, (next row)Henckels Platinum, Torrey, Sears 1865, Thistle Cut Co., Torrey Little Shaver and '65 Gillette SS on the bottom shelf.

Looks great, good job..!

Nice set up. Your blades look very secure - just don't reach for one while taking a whiz!

Very cool, congrats!
I so wanna do something like that in my own shave den.

Great set up. Nice eye candy for when you're standing.

Also, the title of this thread is great!

Cool bit of repurposing. I'm closing on a house in a couple weeks and was more excited than my wife to have two sinks in the master bath so that her hair and make up junk don't crowd my brushes, soaps, creams, strop, styptic, beard comb, and the like. I've already claimed the one with room on the side for a shelf to hold some stuff. I might have to keep my eyes out for a pipe rack now. Any worries about condensation/moisture with it being right above the pot?

That's a great set-up for your gear. I agree with Maxi, great thread title!

Thanks for the complements guys. It sure is better than just looking at a blank wall or a painting!

I've watched every blade very closely since putting them over the toilet, and haven't seen any signs of moisture/corossion trouble at all. There were would have to be some serious "water pressure" to get things splashing that high! Congrats on the house (and dual sinks!).

That's the type of artwork every person should have! Nice looking set-up!

Good stuff! I currently only have 4 SRs but I'm already on the prowl for a dispaly case! Congrats on your find - I'm sure it will get filled up soon!
