First is a Vanity Mirror ,,an old one that my dad had and now I have it in my shop on the wall to see whats in my eye from time to time..



But did you know this about them old vanity mirrors ?


Or did you ever see a metal cabinet for a radio ,,I aint never ..

Heres One though for sale on Craigs List for $10



And Last of all have you wondered what to do with an extra pair of vice grips ?
If not heres an idea ..



Just something to look at when you log in and nothing else going on ,,LD LOL

Either no one sees what it says in the rear of the cabinet or it just ain't registering ,,so I will give ya a hint .. Razor Blades ..that is what it says and I was curious if any one knows why it says that ,,and also why is it on the rear of the cabinet ?

That is what we used to call a "medicine cabinet" and would normally be in the bathroom.
When Dad (or mom too, I guess) was finished with the Gillette double edge razor blade he could just deposit it in the slot where it would fall down inside the walls. I guess they never thought about the wall filling up. Wonder how long that would take

Good answer Joel ,, to add to that ,,,I have remodeled a house or two and gotten into them Razor blade collections and some are a rusted chuck of metal and bonded togeather with rust..I did find a Liberty Head dime in one .. If the wall is not on a outer wall of a house where it wouldnt have fire blocking ,,then I suppose in about 500 years it would fill up ... of course now most razor blades come with the handle so if they made a larger hole in the medicine cabinet then the wall would fill up pretty darn quick..LOL
