Ooh, nice set! The Rocnel iteration looks interesting. I have generally been really excited by innovative Rocnel designs but am also highly skeptical of the quality of the materials. For 316L, they dent and scratch awfully easily.

This is my final design version of the 3d printed Enders Speed style razor for GEM blades "ENDGEM SPEED". I streamlined the head a little more and removed the color-band on the handle for easier printing. I also changed the cap design for easier blade loading. This is my new favorite. I'm sure it has room for improvement, but if I change anything, it might be the size of the handle. I traced a profile drawing of the enders handle from a patent link on @sɐǝɹpu∀ razors.click site, so, I could be off a little on the over-all size. The files are available for download on Thingiverse.

Here's another 3d printed GEM SE style safety razor. It has the same blade holding method as the EndGem Speed, but with a low profile head and round handle. I've uploaded the files on Thingiverse.

Lol...

This one is a very easy print, but I suggest you keep the seam away from blade contact. I have specific blade loading/unloading instructions on Thingiverse. And of course, if you do print it, your feedback is most welcomed. Thanks @fredyx

Yeah I know it.. it is in spanish.. but you only asked for a video..
No complaints here. Loved that you did a wonderful job showing the razor and bowl from a variety of angles. Showing the slide-on cap mechanism of the other razor was great, too. These really help well beyond the pictures we normally see. The matching highlighter yellow razor and bowl looks very modern and eye-catching! Plus, hey ... Spanish! For all I know you could have been snidely commenting on the size of my manhood and I'd probably still think it sounded beautiful.

Can you speak more to the material used? Smooth or still textured? I bought a baby bowl that works really great as a shaving bowl, but my brush keeps falling into it between passes, so I'm still planning on making the original one with the brush-holder.

And speaking of brush holders / stands, just saw this one under Master Craftsman Quin's designs: Thingiverse link. :wub:

Happy to help a little bit with my videos (I've just commented on shaving stuff I can assure you :) ). The quality of the finish depends of the technology used to print (filament or resine) and in my case, the type of filament and the printing quality, some materials give a smoother finish and others provide more resistant pieces. Probably @SlimGem can provide better explanations than me on this matter.
