If you do mean the two halves won't stick together, I found with the smaller ones, that if I pack them too tight they stick to the mold and not together. So I loosely fill each half and mound the centers, then squish them together.
Also use this one http://www.soap-making-resource.com/soap-beveler.html Best thing I bought last year, and as others said cleaning is so easy.
I also use his Acrylic Log Molds and the Cylinder Mold
IL I bought that about year and a half ago, and have beveled and planed about 2000 bars of soap, and it still works as it did the first day I bought it.
I love the SMR beveller/planer, and will probably purchase a second one, just in case it ever does get dull.

Can be a little pricey, but I their shipping has been really fast. I ordered on late Tuesday, and it is arriving tomorrow. They are located in Connecticut.
I wanted to reply that I did buy and use the Pompiean Olive Oil from BJ's and I didn't have any different results than when I was using the Wellesley Farm Oil. It soaped beautifully.
I think to me anyway, the confusing part of the title of this section, "Member's Websites & Online Sales " Is the part that says, Online Sales. Maybe just remove it from this section, so it just says Member's Websites. Then add Online Sales to the Shopping Recommendations page.
To be more organized. I am always behind on paperwork etc. I also want to make more product this winter, as my real job ramps up for the summer, and I just don't have time then. This is year was exhausting.
