    Default What happens when the shelf is full?

    Just a few months into proper shaving and look what's happen...stuff! Including my Muhle R89 safety razor. Such nice workmanship, impeccable machining. Love the shave but it's not as close as my straight razors. Also picked up an electric kettle. Boils 7 cups in seconds. Loving that for floating my bowls and making hot towels. Now if I only had a barber's chair...

    when the shelf is full, it is only logical to add a second one and start filling it as well.

    It doesn't really become a problem until the house is full

    Then build up and out. Straight razors must not be contained!

    Simple. Send me all of your 8/8 razors and I will send you all of my 4/8 razors. You'll free up half a shelf instantly. :-)

    Just buy more shelves. I have four plus a small 2 drawer night table I use as well.

    I just moved all of my razors, creams and aftershaves into a 9 drawer dresser that is 8 feet long and 4 feet high. In the den I have one shelf, 9 strops and a counter covered. That's just for the rotation.
    I'm looking for a bigger house now.
    The word here is expansion.
