3D printed shaving stuff

[sɐǝɹpu∀]

Thanks! I used basic PLA for head and tip, and carbon fiber PLA for the grip.

Carbon fibre PLA. Now we're talking posh. I need to look into this.
I do remember suggesting to a razor manufacturer once to make his product in carbon fibre (instead of brass) to reduce weight.
I received the email equivalent of a panicked blank stare.
That was before 3D printing took off.

I should really look up the density of different 3D printing materials (in kg/m3)

The Carbannog still needs a few tiny refinements before I get one printed.
One change I have made is to split it into two, so it can be printed in two colours.
I did kill a Schick Type E with a Dremel for that purpose.
Now I know the size of the stem/hole of the original and the Caerbannog handle should fit the old head as an added benefit.

I'm a bit of an SE razor nerd. So, yes they do qualify.

I have, however, recently used some vintage Twin-DE blades with great results.
Basically, a slightly narrower than usual DE blade glued on top of a normal-size one.
Would they fit? They are 0.3mm thick, about three times thicker than a modern "normal" DE blade.

Nice! With that thickness, those blades are worth sharpening as needed.

Definitely, a nice option to have if you need to repair, or want to change handles on an Injector.

After my Dremel was done with the handle, I now have a need to repair
Just for the record: The peg is 4.0 mm in diameter and 10.0 mm long - they were doing metric back then

Oh, what the heck... How about I introduce one more 3d printed razor to wrap up the week, then I'll stop for a while.

This is my version of an Ever Ready Streamline SE razor. It's a two-piece razor that uses injector blades. It's compact, shaves great, and it has become one of my travel razors.

You are teasing us.
It's two-piece, so the head is one piece?
How does it work? Any trickery going on?

Lol... Nope, no trickery going on. It's a two-piece razor, and the method works incredibly well.

I didn't forget your question, I was getting a screenshot. I think my illustration explains best how it works.

Ahh, a razor clam(p)

Exactly what it is. The pivot point is right behind the blade acting as a hinge when you screw in the handle.

The first Caerbannog has been printed and should be with me shortly.

One Caerbannog head, two handles (one for the destroyed Schick Type E),
two test hinges for the slant and a round thing for making coffee to keep me going.
