I've been trying out using a car mobile phone holder as a shaving brush stand for a few days now. The main reason I wasn't happy with my brush stand was because not all my brushes fitted properly. This spring-loaded clamp has no problem holding onto my heavy Muhle resin brush and it allows me to position the brush upwards or downwards (or even sideways). Since my brushes don't drip I can see no point in having anything below the brush so easy to clean the sink top below it (I don't usually have all the other shaving stuff next to the clamp - it was just for this photo.)
Anyhow, a great BBS shave from today's setup. I've been using an injector for the last few days and I must say this beats it hands down.

Enjoy your Sunday, folks.
