Have you seen his lighted razor table..!?

Thanks, guys! The displays are English, American, and German, top to bottom.
Going to add another one as I get the ball rolling.

Yeah there is the razor table, the razor clock, and a little 'barber shop' , mug display, etc.
Cleaning it all up and slowly moving it home to an empty room....Red carpet!

So how long have you been collecting now.
inquiring minds want to know !!

Started the madness about 2002 or so, outback. About a third of those shown are shavers, with a 24 razor rotation at home, they go in and out. Also some sets, pairs, etc. My goal is to cull some repetitious stuff, display most everything, shave with it all.
Watch the classifieds, now!

I love the table, are the razors under lighted glass?

Me too..!!!

Very cool displays!

Fnishing up this Mash Brothers Pond Works with a nice
etch. You never really can know how oxidized Bakelite is going to react to sanding. I've had some that are very brown clean up in a few minutes on the polisher. Then there are others, like this one, that are showing light oxidation but you've got to sand them for days to see any progress. I know there are different kinds of hard rubber materials, but they're all "Bakelite" to me. Not my favorite task, but well worth doing right. I'll get this one on the stones after the kids go to bed.

It has been an evolution, John. The bottom of the table is the lower part of the Theo Kochs table in the foreground. 3 of them and stood about 4 feet. Funky!
The other two sterilizer cabinets were shortened about 8-12 inches. Rotted at the bottom, so work better as tables. All are laminated from my serious millwork neighbor. All old inside!
The guy literally bent the plywood for the table. Most impressive. I had the glass from another old table.

Anyhoo, it was originally a cell-rot incubator.
Now, the shaving brush smashed in the middle hides a computer fan which blows down in the bottom.
There are 3 'sink strainer' inlets around the outer bottom. They hold a bit of Zeolite topped with a fiber filter.
Made some circulation! I have long-since done away with the rope lights. Installed the LED ones now.
LED in all the cabinets as well.

Once I tossed the culprits, all has been fine in there!

The challenge now is to install it all in a small, odd-shaped room.

So, John.... Staying put?
