Well, I did it again. I have ordered the new Triceratops SE Razor from a 3D Printer. The razor takes a GEM blade. Here is the automation showing how it works.
Here are some pictures from TSD. I am having mine printed in green.
Update: 28 Nov
I got the pictures of the printing. It is a little rough on the back side of the head, but that will probably sand out fine.

This box was commissioned for a 1950 Gillette Executive. It arrived today at its new home in Canada, and here are the pictures.
I set the knot last week, but today I did the first lathering for #419. I normally don't bowl lather, but I make an exception for the first lathering for a new brush. I used Proraso Red for this one.
Here is Jayaruh #418 completed. After I set the knot, I did an Oxi Clean rinse/wash, towel dried, and then air dried. These pictures are post bloom.
I must admit, I have never been fond of the synthetic knot I had put in #220. So, today, I decided to take it to the next level. I removed the old knot and replaced it with a two-band badger. That will be a big improvement.

I just finished this box for my TNNSER 3D. I mixed the black cap and green handle for this TNNSER, so I thought I'd do the same for the box. So, the base is lined with black to contrast the green, and the lid is lined with green.
I was approached by a gentleman looking for a TNNSER razor. I checked with my printer to see if he was interested in doing a single run for him. He was not, but he had a few pieces left from previous runs. I was able to get them from him, and I put together the last two TNNSER razors. Here are some pictures.
The first two are after I fitted the handles and filed the caps and baseplate so they work well together. It is also before I did any cleaning.
