    Default Cheap scale material?

    I was at Ikea today and came across some pant hangers. The wood is smooth and unlike other IKEA products, the wood is actually solid not a veneer. I think after removing the metal and cutting in half lengthwise I will have 1/8" left for each side of the scales. The length is 12" long. Each hanger should be enough 4 razors. What do you guys think? Is it worthwhile? I wish I knew what kind of wood this was. Pine perhaps. Anyone know?

    Edit: By the way it only costs 99 cents to buy each hanger so that's 25 cents per razor.
