Strop Mount

[RoscoBaldy]

I built this simple strop mount with parts from a local hardware store. Made it simple, but innovative with some functional variations. It allows me to achieve a few different angles for stropping and a solid stationary mount primarily. Just some basic drilling and countersinking on both sides to keep everything flush. It is solid on the wall with two coarse screws placed into a stud. I also got to use some leftover paint I had to give it a nice modern look. With the hardware and pre-made oval wooden plate I think I spent $12.

I have a large walk-in closet that I prefer to strop in as opposed to my bathroom. This keeps my black leather strop clean and dry; away from splashed water and the general busy morning routine. I like a lot of room when stropping without having to worry about others trafficking through. As opposed to a hook or some random object that is either not very solid or too high, this is the way to go. I highly recommend making yourself a quality strop mount for very little time and money. I love this and it will save me time. Cheers!
