    August 2019 SMF Challenge- Summer memory

    Well, here are my memories of summer soaps. It took a while to finish and dry, but I thought I'd post them just the same. I'll call them the "Jersey Girls". This may be a bit bizarre, but my fondest summer memories are of the days I spent on a farm in the Northeast Kingdom of Vt. We took our...

    SMF September 2019 Challenge - Linear Swirl

    It may sound crazy, but I sand down one end of each of the dowels I use, rounding the tips. They slide nice and smoothly on the silicone molds. I think I would do the same on the comb skewers too if they were going touch the bottom of the mold. But then again I get a little lost in the details. o_O

    What soapy thing have you done today?

    Thanks! I used a pretty good amount of hard oil in the batter and polished them up with microfiber cloth when they were hard enough. I was pretty surprised myself at how shiny they got, now I'm gonna be running around polishing all of my soap. o_O

    Wholesale supplies price increase in mostly everything

    I love their bamboo lotus and it's up to $40 a pound, anybody know of a decent replacement? I've stopped trying out their FOs due to their pricing. (I also wrote a polite but negative review on a FO they did not publish) :smallshrug:

    Planer and Beveler - updated recommendations?

    Yes, it is can be a little difficult to clean, nothing too serious. Here is a link to a youtube video on the use and care of it. Seeing it may give you a better idea. I really love it. :)

    August 2019 SMF Challenge- Summer memory

    All of the entries are terrific! I'm not going to make it on time this month. I poured my soap a little late and it's still too soft to get out of the mold. I loved the challenge and will post pics when I'm able to do the finish work any who. Good luck all, great soap designs! :thumbs:

    Planer and Beveler - updated recommendations?

    I have an acrylic planer and it works well but I actually prefer this one: https://www.etsy.com/listing/160228138/the-original-soap-planer-and-beveler?ref=shop_home_feat_1 For me, it's easier to use, I like the results and I get nice soap curls! :D
