@Meena I make do a whole lot. For cutting my soaps, I use a ruler and mark 1" increments along each side with my soap cutting blade. Then do the best I can to cut straight down across the loaf from one mark to the matching mark on the other side. Bars aren't perfect, but never had any...
Meena, I use the tare button when measuring the hard oils. If I put a little too much cocoa butter in with the coconut oil, it's easy enough to take a little back out. Sometimes I live on the wild side and tare with the soft oils. But I pour very, very, very slowly.
I put together a slab mold out of the last two bed slats. Looks like #@$@! But it's square and I'm gonna use it, by cracky! Getting some freezer paper to use in this one. It really is worse than a cardboard box.
Thanks for the correction, Misschief. I just realized the soap I was talking about was actually created by KiwiMoose. I've never been accused of being the brightest crayon in the box. ;-)
I made two 4 lb wood soap molds today. Daughter had 4 pine bed slats headed to the trash. I grabbed them. They're somewhat warped & not pretty, but they work for me. After the two molds today, I still have two boards left. Will likely make a slab mold after seeing Zing's beautiful soap she made...
