    Finally back making soaps after the Passing of my companion..

    Thank you.. She, unlike many cats, really tried her best to imitate human behavior, acting like one. If we sat in a circle, she figured it out and sat at an even distance to complete the circle..

    Homemade soap beveler

    I agree, I've actually been working on 2 different models, 1) a 3d printed disposable one that will last and unknown amount of time (mainly for testing), 2) 3d printed permanent one. And 3) a wood one.
