Great job Milla!
My husband also made my mold from that same Youtube video. It turned out great, but it's for a 4-pound loaf. I was thinking ahead- but I'm only making 1-pound batches right now. I just block the mold at the right size for each batch, but it's a bit of a hassle.
I might have to pester him to make me a 1 and 2 pound mold. These look great and I love your cutter!!

Fantastic work~!!

Thanks everybody! Chrissy, just tell hubby that I made both the mold and the cutter in an afternoon with minimal tools. It actually didn't take that long. I would make the front stopper taller or as tall as the sides otherwise the soap wants to bed over the stopper. I bought more wood to fix it.

soapisfun, you can never have too many molds! I wish I had two 1 lb molds. That way I can get more test batches done!

I just have to say the cutter is the best one I have used to date . I was very cutting challenged before my hubby made me a "Milla" cutter .Thanks again Milla . YOU ROCK !!

Sorry I missed this! There isn't a tutorial for the cutter, but there is one for the mold and it's from this forum.

You'll see that Keith made a soap cutter in there. It's the same width as the soap mold. The only difference is putting some cuts in for your cutting blade. If you want 1" soaps, put it in 1". I didn't have any good tools so I used a jig saw. I used finishing nails and glue to put it all together. Kind of a pain. It works and that's all that matters to me. I'm debating making another one for 1" cuts and maybe straighter too!
