diamondk Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 Glad to hear it. What size did you get and what all comes with it? On their site they said something about a cover do you know what they mean by that? TIA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terrie Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 I'm so jealous! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaryinCary Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 WoooHooo...now make soap and post the pictures so we can drool! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meridith Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 Yeah!!!!! I'm soooo happy for you. I think you will like it. I have one too that I recently purchased. It does take some getting used to if you've only used a log mold. I can't wait to see pictures. Terrie, just splurge and get it! You'll be glad you did. Besides, you deserve a little treat for yourself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mysticglow Posted August 19, 2005 Author Share Posted August 19, 2005 I got the small mold, 12 bar/4.5lbs. I have been looking at them for a while and decided that I wanted one. I have only used the log molds so far. My DH made two of them for me. Really nice but wanted to see if my ability to swirl would improve with the slab mold. :rolleyes2I better get to work now and get the day over with so I can come back home and make soap. I will post pics when I get it done (unless it's ugly) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melly Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 YAY! I ordered a 12 bar and a 48 bar mold on tuesday, and my order is still queued. Can not wait to get mine either. Remember to use a 3lb recipie in the 12 bar if you got the 1.5 inch size, 4.5 pounds of oils is the "Wet Soap" amount, which includes your water. Have fun with it and let us know if you like it!

Meridith Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 Melly is right - don't use a 4lb recipe as it is too much for this mold to handle. 3lb recipes are just right. Guess how I know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mysticglow Posted August 21, 2005 Author Share Posted August 21, 2005 I really like this mold so far. I have made two batches of soap this weekend. First batch was Drakkar - no color and the second one is OMH. I am planning to make the next batch later on tonight and try a swirl. Wish me luck cause I'm very swirl impaired. :rolleyes2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meridith Posted August 21, 2005 Share Posted August 21, 2005 I've been wanting to soap Drakkar. Did you cpop those batches or just cp? So far I'm really liking mine too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mysticglow Posted August 21, 2005 Author Share Posted August 21, 2005 I will take some pics after I unmold the OMH and get it cut. I did sort of a cpop. I was a little afraid to put my mold in there with the oven on. So, I preheated it to about 170* or so and then cut it off just before putting the mold in. Everything seems to be fine with it so far. I may try to cpop the next batch and hope not to ruin my new mold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sherie Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 I am so wanting one of those! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purple Lilac Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 I am not familiar with this mold - so excuse the stupid question but how do you unmold it - it appears that the sides come away but what about the liner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mysticglow Posted August 24, 2005 Author Share Posted August 24, 2005 The liner is very flexible and you just pull it away from the soap. Super easy.I am really liking this mold so far. Sherrie - you need to just get you one. I think you would be happy with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meridith Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 IMO its the liner that makes the mold so cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meridith Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 Why wait for your hubby to buy you one? Crud, with my hubby I'd be waiting FOREVER!! LOL Splurge and buy it for yourself and then let him know what "he" bought you. Works for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
