The college student's shave den.

Hey y'all, well I have decided to post up my shave den. I think it's really modest, but for a college guy's budget it's pretty good! give me halls opinion! By the way.. That's an old Victorian hook that I have my strop hanging off of... I can't get it do go in any deeper.. And I don't want to break it.. Any suggestions? Comments and opinions please!
PS I don't keep my razors out like that. It's just for the pictures!

That's a heck of a shave den for anyone.
For the hook drill a pilot hole.
If you don't have a drill find a self tapping screw a little smaller (maybe half the size) than the threads on the hook. Screw that in, then take it out and the hook should go in easily.

Sadly enough yes, I'm saving money to get a nice SRD strop :)

Thats a great looking set up!

Very nice setup! I love the scales that say "Coogs!" My two sister-in-laws, mother-in-law, and two good friends went to UH! My wife and I are UST alums (her for her undergraduate and my for one of my graduate degrees).

Great shave den but it looks like you're missing a Gem SE to go with those safety razors.:)

seriously, where is the towel steamer... not sure I would even call it a shave den ;)

Nice strop! A Prima Rindleder is as good as any, IMHO!

I know right? It's awesome! It's also Dovo branded!
@tom: lol oh really? I never held a GEM before.. Lol that would be nice! ;) btw can you pm me the date and time of the Houston meet coming up?

That's a great looking setup you have.

From a fellow college student, Awesome! Of course, I'm a bit jealous of the whole thing, regardless of shave gear. Your bathroom's the size of my kitchen. haha!

You sure you're a college student?

Never seen college student's bathroom that nice in my life much less one made into a shave den!

Outstanding job.

Lol thanks, my father blessed me with this condo. I live in down town Houston (university of houston GO COOGS!) Where are you going to school?

I just want to know where I can find a leather case like the one you're keeping your razors in.

wikipedia says '...a cubby-hole, cubby-house or cubby is a small, snug place, which may be considered and used as a place of safety for children.'

just kidding, it looks awesome!

It's actually a pencil case from Texas art supply! I just cut every other stitching and my razors fit right in!
