    Lye static.. beads went everywhere

    Heh well if it was, it got me! :-D I haven't tried it but I'm having the same dang issue, beads everywhere. I'm to the point I'm swiping everything down with a used dryer sheet (which helps a bit).

    What is ricing

    I saw that one FO "rices" - what does that mean exactly? Just as it sounds, makes the soap look like rice in little chunks? (that's what I picture LOL)

    Making Wooden Mould - Size?

    Hi! I was going to make my own wooden loaf moulds, but I was curious if there is a "standard" size? 2.5 x 3 finished bar or is it totally a personal choice? Thank you!

    what do you do when...

    This is beyond true. In my day job I receive vials of liquid weekly from 5mL dropper vials to 10mL, 30mL, 50mL and 100mL multi-dose vials and I have never.. EVER received a broken one. There is zero excuse for poor packaging on fragile items from a company that literally specializes in...

    Releasing soap from PvC mold?

    I made my first hot process and failed to line it, because I was afraid the glopping down 2 feet of tube (way way too big) would bend the liner and defeat the purpose, and I didn't have mineral oil.
