Only once did I take my eyes off of the cooking soap and yes it was all over the counter. Since then I am more diligent! LOLI do have a smaller heavy pan...can I assume that I want a heavy pan rather than a light one? Maybe I will test out a very small batch, keeping within the 2 X size, in that one before I go out and buy one of my own for soaping.What about the type of handle? I know if I used my SS 6 quart pan that has two small side grips that I would need help if I tried to pour the soap into the mold. I was looking at one with a long handle, thinking I could lift and pour. Am I dreaming about that or will it be too heavy to maneuver?  Another question I just thought of. We always tell people to watch out for metal racks as sometimes even if they are listed as SS it is a light coating and easily worn off, leaving bare metal to touch our soaps. Is that something I have to watch out for? Are there "magic" numbers when shopping for SS cookware? Could I trust a pan that says SS on the bottom at a garage sale? Any brands to stay away from? Or am I turning into my dear hubby who always over-worries things to the point of not ever taking that first step? They say you look like your spouse as you age...it's easy to pick up nasty habits too! LOL</blockquote>
