    A little while ago @Juno contacted me to restore a couple of cases for him. But he needed a case for his Senator, why not. The first pic is from the seller I got it from..........

    After I stained it Red Mahogany and a few coats of Satin Poly-Urethane..........

    This third pic showing the complete interior using a purple-blue material similar in color to the ones Gillette used in cases from the the '30's and '40's..........

    And using a Senator from @Jrdelgado for a case I'll be making him soon and two spare blade cases I had lying around..........
