Custom Machined Razor/Shaving Stand - Solid Brass

What began as a search for my spare blades and also a nicer razor stand turned into a months-long project, that I am happy to say has reached its conclusion. I have spent more time, energy, and thought than I care to admit creating this, but it has turned out exactly as envisioned.

This razor stand is made from solid brass and consists of 4 precision-machined components - the base, shaft, top plate, and top nut. Everything threads together smoothly by hand with fine-pitch threads. The openings will fit most brushes and razors, which was important to me as I expand my collection. The brush side is tapered to nestle the brush in place, and the razor side has a small relief to help keep my razor in place. The razor side is also radiused to help prevent dings/damage when setting razors in place.

Now for the best part - flip the stand over, and you will find a pocket with a neodymium magnet. This pocket will hold 5-10 blades, so I always know where my spares are

I had a lot of fun coming up with this, and hope you enjoy. Oh, according to our kitchen scale it weights just over 2.5 pounds!

 

Thank you! Yes I can certainly up this post. There will be several more of these out in the wild in different materials in the near future...

 

Ha! Not every design is a home run, that's for sure. What's interesting about that is the response on facebook was the polar opposite of BF. Clearly different audiences/markets.

 

Very cool, glad you came across this! Email me - my user name @gmail

 

Here are a couple more examples in solid copper and stainless steel

 

Unfortunately not. Although I have some experience in machining, I would not be able to produce these. I work with several individuals/machine shops to produce the designs to my specifications. This allows me to focus on the design aspect, while the machinists can do what they do well
