Scented Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 Hey Jeff, Finally assembled it together and decided to use it. This doesn't show the inserts, but I used them. They leaked a little on the bottom, but so what. I think it needs a little something more though, so I'm going to go looking for some bands to keep it together so I can use both hands. There's about a 1/2 residue on the sides. Some of it comes from taking out the slats and some from when I took out one slat that raised an end piece. Messy. Note to self not to soap barefoot. Scented FCUK ... and oh my I think it's my new fave.[ATTACH]14479[/ATTACH]Not thrilled with the colors, but maybe captured tonight's soap gremlins. Let's hope they don't screw up the soap. Ha ha.[ATTACH]14480[/ATTACH] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBE Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 I like these colors. It looks.... "earthy-springy". Love those swirlies! Kinda reminds me of the planet Jupiter (well, from what I've seen in pictures...lol) Never smelled FCUK before... what supplier ya got it at?

Basil, Rosemary, Lavender, Sangria , Hemp, New Mexican Black Sage, Tea Leaves, Green Peppercorns, CO2 Vanilla, Ebony Wood, Patchouli, Black Suede. Was hoping for a sage green and not a dark green and I was thinking this winter purple wouldn't be so red. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scented Posted January 27, 2008 Author Share Posted January 27, 2008 French Connection UK I believe. I should have shown more of Jeff's mold though lol, since I can hang dividers in there. The FO was very easy to work with. No acceleration at all. Not seeing any D either, still smells pretty good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scented Posted January 29, 2008 Author Share Posted January 29, 2008 Well I tried to get the log off the bottom of the mold, but it's not hard enough ... getting there, but isn't there yet. When it is, I'll assemble the mold so you can see what it looks like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scented Posted January 31, 2008 Author Share Posted January 31, 2008 Well I ended up cutting the soap from the bottom and will have to trim it later, but what fun this mold can be. I'll put the mold back together today and take some pix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scented Posted January 31, 2008 Author Share Posted January 31, 2008 OK tap no mo' lol! This is a log mold, capability of making 15 bars on this one log.[ATTACH]14530[/ATTACH]The inside slats are removable and have capabilities of putting 3 slats inside.

jbren Posted January 31, 2008 Share Posted January 31, 2008 That's a beauty. So, with the slats you make 3 logs or they are strictly for separating the colors when you pour and are then removed??If that's the case, then I can see how versatile this would be!

Scented Posted January 31, 2008 Author Share Posted January 31, 2008 Strictly for pouring and separating colors, pull and blend colors together if I want or have neopolitan-like soaps kind of thing. It's just a toy to have lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbren Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 well, I just love it! Now we need to see pics of the cut soap! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scented Posted February 1, 2008 Author Share Posted February 1, 2008 Yeah, well uh uh uh uh ... I have to reshoot them and figure out how to get them to not be so shiny. Sigh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scented Posted February 1, 2008 Author Share Posted February 1, 2008 OK they aren't pretty and not what I was thinking of when I poured this. At the same time, I'm a little worried about the white, white. It's ugly lol, but I want to try one where I don't give up on patience. BUT, how about those mittens? And the bottom right made me think of a crab (most of the pinchers cut off though.[ATTACH]14536[/ATTACH] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
