    Robert Evans of woodshoprobert on Etsy.com made this stand for me. You could try messaging him and when he takes his shop off vacation he hopefully can let you know if he still makes these. The urethane coating protects the wood. The stand holds up great and should last forever. If the urethane gets thin ever, you can just apply more.

    Razor - Soviet Consul
    Blade - [​IMG] (2)
    Soap - Arko
    Brush - BoS Omega 10066
    Post - Alum

    Second day of the Consul and we crank it up to 2 on the dial. Now, on the Slim this is the lowest setting I use and it doesn't always give a fantastic shave depending on the blade. Pretty mild. On the first stroke with the Consul....this is no Slim. It isn't crazy aggressive but definitely more than a Gillette Adjustable. Loud audible feedback and two passes and a bit of cleanup got me to a near-BBS and the alum is only mildly hot. Really, just in spots. Still a smooth feel and no blood or other issues. Other than the aggressive feel I'm beginning to think this isn't a real Soviet. Oh wait, there's that slightly loose adjustment wheel and the overall cheap metal feel. I'm back to reality.

    Hope you are all having a great holiday weekend!
