    A question about lye

    I am in Orlando and get mine at Esential Depot.... They ship. Usually when I need a bunch of stuff, it's cheaper for me to drive and pick up a big order than ship it.... so I take the afternoon off and go to Sebring.

    Monkey Farts question

    Just a thought- Have you either had someone else smell them, or smelled some scents you are really familiar with? The reason I ask is a while back, I unknowingly had a sinus infection, and it screwed up my sense of smell at the time- BUT only with certain kinds of smells. So like coffee...

    Collecting Sales Tax

    How does the - So called- Amazon law apply there? What does Amazon do in NY? It seems pretty unreasonable. Internet sales ave always been sticky. It really would be easier if they DID just create an internet sales tax federally and distribute it to the sates.

    his might sound like a stupid question

    I was having a conversation with a hobby soaper and they made a claim that seemed impossible- but HEY I thought I'd ask here.... They said, they accidently used an extra 12 ounces of lye in a 8 pound soap recipe- and even though it was THAT lye heavy, it was NOT zappy after 24 hours. Is that...

    OK, Seriously. Movie Threads?

    The challenge with Captcha and others is that most of these php forums the bots don't use the interface at all. They post directly to the database. There are games online where similar bots post hidden secret posts that only other game players can get the links to. I have run a few forums and...

    I am hunting for insurance for selling soap, in the USA, at events. Can any of you share recommendation FOR or against any particular carriers you use- and why? I did try to search, but after a couple hundred with no specific carriers mentioned I thought I;d try a new thread. Thanks in...

    How do you store pre-mixed colorant?

    What about putting a shaker ball in them? I do face and body art when wearing my other hat, and we usually get Stainless Steel nuts at the hardware store, and drop those into our makeup bottles and they make very good agitators. This way, if using squirty bottles a good shake should mix...

    luffa

    The smaller and younger the loofah is, the softer it will be. If you let them get big, then will be coarser. One caution, when I have grown them, they vine EVERYWHERE and if one goes unpicked and hits the ground, you will have tons more next year.... They can be a bit invassive. More so in...

    What to use for a mold....

    Ok, so I want to do a decorated soap layer cake.... BUT what to use for a mold???? Suggestions? I have some deep cake pans, but even if I could figure a way to line it... It is aluminum so if it leaks it would be a disaster. A bucket? But how would I get it to release. A spring...
