    Finally got some time to do a project I've been wanting to do. I build a lot of stuff from reclaimed wood so I've been wanting to add a piece to my den. Used some old pallet wood i had. I stained the sides and rubbed boiled linseed oil on the back to give it a rustic look. Drilled some holes to hand some razors.

    Hope y'all like it

    Outstanding job - The reclaimed wood fits and looks great with the vintage gear.

    Thanks for the kind words. Yea I'm big into antiques and fill our house with vintage stuff. So I thought this would be a great fit.

    Really good job. Well done. I'm going to use your pic as an example to the wife, my thinking being, her ocd type order where everything must be symmetrical . Every window sill, display stand or side board. It gets on my nerves. But when she see how good a shave den can look.... Well then. I'm home and dry.
