I got this cabinet as a gift from my special gal. She found it in an antique/resale shop. It has two holes cut in the bottom of it that fit tubs of Taylors and T&H pefect. The top opens up and has a mirror on it but I don't normally open it from the top.

I'm adding an SR 3122 (or 24 still debating) to the rotation next week and one Gillette Tech as soon as I can find one.

Very nice start. Prepare to start looking for more space like the rest of us :D

I like how the shaving tubs sit in the cabinet up to their lids. This is a very nice piece. It would be even better if it was just a scale model. Your gonna need more room brother. ;)

:happy088 Very nice!

Excuse my ignorance, but what do you use the cutlery for (is it a spoon)?

I use the spoon to get cream out of the tubs. Just something I started using and got used to. It helps insure I use the same amount of cream each time.

I'll probably need more space in the future but I think she's trying to stunt the purchases for a while by buying me a smaller cabinet. ;)

Never thought of that - good thinking.
