    Cool Razor Partition Slots

    Looking down into the box lay the thickest razor spine-down and mark where a partition should be. Mark it at either end of the box .On the top edge of the box at the mark carefully drill a verticle hole the same diameter as the thickness of the partition material down to the bottom of the box. Locate the hole as close as possible to the inside wall of the box. Leave just minimum material at the hole bore to this inside surface (this keeps the bit from wandering). There will be two holes drilled for each partition. Cut away the web left at the edge of the hole. This will make a neat rounded slot to hold the partition in place. Repeat the process using your widest razor for spacing for the next partition (unless you want a specific razor arrangement according to razor). My razors are of different thicknesses, thus I use the thickest one (3-pin Grah&Plumacher) for spacing. That way partitions will be ready for any sized razor. There are probably other ways to make the slots. A tiny gouge chisel could be used to score the marks. Maybe a broken hacksaw blade short-stroke job might work. The box is made of cheap gummy wood. It cuts and drills easily. I am getting a camera. . Bear with me, photos are on the way. Another hobby...? Thanks for the patience, Robert
