The $5 PVC Shaving Stand

Step 4Assemble!

Assemble!
Assemble the PVC pieces with the elbows, tees, and caps. One 1/2" tee will be used for holding the razor; the other (with the 1"x1/2" elbow) will cradle the brush as shown in the picture below.

Okay, yes: there is something wrong with the current state of the stand. Can you say what it is?

What? You say it's a problem that the badger-hair brush is standing bristles up and it will hurt the badger hair? Are you MAD? Have you ever met a badger? Badgers don't mess around. Badgers could take down bears. Chuck Norris's sensei is Badger Badger-san. Ever see a badger take a bath and then dangle from a brach by its teeth so that its hair dried the right way? Of course not! If shaving brushes weren't meant to dry bristles-up, why would they make the ends of them flat so you could stand them that way? The badger can handle it! DON'T DISRESPECT THE BADGER, YOU DISTRAUGHT PINK-CHEEKED BADGER-PAMPERER!

(sorry for the outburst--I just wanted a chance to use the phrase "distraught pink-cheeked badger-pamperer")

However, having said that, the stand DOES have a serious problem: the 1" round section of the tee is simply too small to offer proper support to the badger. Something more stable is necessary. Either get a larger diameter elbow (if you're okay with a bristles-up stand) or see the next step to rectify the situation.
