    Default Project Rack

    As my collection of straights grows, I have almost as many that need restoration/re-scaling as I do that are shave ready and in my rotation.
    I was leaving them laid out flat in my closet(in the shave den) but they were out of sight, out of mind.
    I was using this pipe rack for my DE's but since switching to straights, I had no need to keep them on display.

    Next time you are in an antique store and see a pipe rack/stand, it makes a handy holder for your project blades(and with some modification, will hold any scaled straight too.)

    No! then I would never get done!
    My plan is to finish these, then use it as a finished razor stand, then I'll be done.

    Excellent idea! But then, where would you put your pipe? I bet a display of alternating pipes and razors would be cool

    Actually, something like this would be ideal! *if you didn't already have one, that is*
