Omega "midget" shave brush travel container

thingiverse

The Omega #11047 "Mighty Midget" shaving brush is one of my top picks for a shave brush. It excels at face lathering and its small size makes it ideal for travel. Unfortunately, my original brush was ruined when I couldn't dry it out properly in a cheap travel container I had been using. That was really disappointing! When traveling, I often shower and shave the morning before checking out of a hotel, leaving no time to dry my brush before packing it in my luggage. To solve this problem, I designed this case with ventilation to allow the brush to dry as much as possible. Even while in this case, the brush will take some time to dry, so don't rely on it completely! I added channels to both ends of the container to let water escape when it's standing upright, but if you're keeping the brush in the case on a flat surface, it's best to set the cap down. You shouldn't rely on the case to dry your brush adequately after use, but this gives it a better chance than sealing it in a bag or plastic tube. This design was based on my other travel shave case with some improvements, including the top and bottom channels. Future upgrades might include vent holes in the side of the cap and if I feel ambitious, some mechanics to stand the brush up outside the cap. Safe travels ahead!
