My name's Sam, Sam I am. I've never made soap before, but I've been researching pretty intensely for the last few days and am eager to try my first batch! I'd like to make cold process, but I think I'll start with melt and pour, since I don't have a very good space to work with lye right now (I might in summer, but this is NoDak - it's flipping cold outside!).
I'm physically disabled, so most work that I have the experience (none) and skill (none) for are out for me. Basically, anything that involves standing all day - retail, food service, etc., not really gonna happen for me. So I end up at home alone all day while my partner works. So I've been looking for a hobby.
Hopefully I'll enjoy soaping enough to continue with it. I've got a terrible habit of picking up a thing and dropping it halfway through.
Excited to get to know you knowledgeable folks! I've been lurking the last couple days, reading on the forums. I found myself wanting to chime in or ask a question or two, so I finally bit the bullet and registered.
Have a great day, y'all.
