Just getting back into soaping after a 2 year hiatus. So today I made 100% lard soap for laundry and tomorrow I am gonna make some beer soap...working on a recipe for that now.

The jars look like frosted tumblers....Genwax has them in 7oz and 10oz sizes...I am looking at the 7oz ones myself.

Did the flat one bow any?? How did your soaps turn out...did you have any trouble unmolding? I might get me one of the flat ones if it didnt bow out...also how many oz did you pour into the flat one?

Where is that "like" button at??? I agree 100%...I dont give a rats azz about the rougher look of soy...I been working with it since 2000 and frosting and wet spots...customers DO NOT care as long as it smells good and burns all the way down.

I am glad you got your money back. I went by there yesterday and didnt see anyone there. Losing his wife was just half the story...the relative he left in charge of the company so he could be with his wife needs to be hung!! They stole him blind and totally crippled the company...over 100,000 dollars. It is a huge mess and no lawyers here wanna take the case cause "family" is involved.

This is so sad...I placed an order too and got tired of waiting and went over there (I live in Tucson) the man was just really not with it...very upset and all. I saw partial orders sitting around and he just really didnt know where to start i dont think. He didnt have over half my order to which the refunded while i was there. He was there all alone and there was a girl up front at the computer but it was just a real sad scene. I wanted to cry...anyway I hope you all get your money back and all. I have not been back over there since that day...so i dont even know if they are still in the building.

I am not buying this one...I will wait a while and see how they do...good luck to all who have ordered...

neither have i and i have a few in a box going on one year old. They are just fine....just like the day after they were poured.

I CPHP any FO that i have questions about....I had my FIRST sieze in 12 years the other week...man is that soap ugly...I may have to do my FIRST rebatch!!

Best advice I have read yet....I dont have a storfront but i have been making candles for 12 years now...I started with gel and quickly switched to soy (when no one knew what soy was) and never looked back. I have tried parasoy blends but never found any i like as much as my soy....WELCOME and have fun!!

I will check my nieces bottle....

CD wicks work for me just fine

Thanks I will check that out...My niece has the origional one from VS so I can compare...

Who is has it? I found it at Lonestar but that is the only place...anyone using it in B&B stuff? opinions anyone??

That sucks...I had my FIRST boo boo in a few years yesterday....warmed up the water and mixed my honey in and then didnt wait for it to cool...i was gonna CPHP it so figured i didnt have to wait...well....i had my first VOLCANO of lye....very interesting....didnt know i could still move that fast!!!!
