Here is the lastest iteration of my scuttle.
I took the feedback you guys gave me and analyzed those problems. One of the big ones was the drying position of the brush. Although I still have yet to find any direct comparison, my logic was that tradition says to dry your brush upside-down. And since most people learn DE/straight razor shaving in a traditional way (ie. it is handed down or taught) it seemed that hanging the brush was the right thing to do.
Now in order to keep the same exterior form I went with more of a slanted brush. It will still drain the water thoroughly and properly as though it were being hung from a stand.
Oh, and I added a lid and drainage holes to the soap dish.
So what do you guys think?
I personally really like this version. I think the slanted brush breaks up the rigid form just enough and the lid really gives the soap dish a clean look.
I’m planning on printing it all out this weekend in PLA just to make sure everything fits nicely before I have it printed in ceramic.
