    Default The college student's shave den.

    Hey y'all, well I have decided to post up my shave den. I think it's really modest, but for a college guy's budget it's pretty good! give me halls opinion! By the way.. That's an old Victorian hook that I have my strop hanging off of... I can't get it do go in any deeper.. And I don't want to break it.. Any suggestions? Comments and opinions please!
    PS I don't keep my razors out like that. It's just for the pictures!

    That's a heck of a shave den for anyone.
    For the hook drill a pilot hole.
    If you don't have a drill find a self tapping screw a little smaller (maybe half the size) than the threads on the hook. Screw that in, then take it out and the hook should go in easily.

    Looks like a pretty sweet set-up to me, but only one strop?
