My problem with safety razors is that they don’t shave close enough, at least when I wield them. I have sparse, somewhat soft whiskers and no matter what blade exposure and angle and direction and prep I try it always leaves a lot behind. A 5-blade drugstore head does a great job, otoh.

Love the idea of safety razors, they just don’t seem to solve my problem.

If you already have a Sodastream (or just get a used one for pennies), you can get a SodaMod and get the bottles refilled at scuba shops for very cheap.

Are scuba setups food-grade? I get my refills for my 10lb tank at a semi-nearby homebrew place. It’s a knock-off (which says you can use it on non-water) but I forget the brand and I’m already in bed.

Use a badger brush, shave once with the grain, once against the grain. Smooth perfection.

I don’t remember what my brush is made of, but I will try again with that approach this weekend, just for you.

Oh, Li-Ion ones are a great idea. the 1.2V ones don't work properly in our Rock Band instruments.

They need a special charger, I assume? E: ah, looks like they just use USB-C, that's reasonable.

Does Eneloop do 1.5V Li-ion batteries? OP is saying that the 1.2V NiMH ones don’t work for their application.

I would just run a 3.0 USB-A hub with external power, yeah. I have a bunch of USB-C docks without captive cables, from Amazon and AliExpress, and they also work OK for what I’m doing with them, but you don’t need a dock.

What's a good motorized tie rack that holds 64 or more ties?

I would honestly be a little surprised if the answer isn’t “get a craftsperson to make something custom” at 64 ties and “high quality”. Like there really can’t be that much of a market…

You may find more takers these days if you tell them it’s a Ukrainian name, but then again maybe not.
