Bob Myers Posted October 14, 2013 Share #1 Posted October 14, 2013 Any you guys have a spouse(or do it yourself) that is into Soap Making? If so, what are they using to cut the loaf after curing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirby Posted October 15, 2013 Share #4 Posted October 15, 2013 I'm suppose to know that but for the life of me , I can't remember. A piece of wire comes to mind, but I really don't think that's it. My Grandma use to make lye soap all the time, but she may have just used a kitchen butcher knife. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sach57 Posted October 15, 2013 Share #5 Posted October 15, 2013 My wife was just making soap at the waterloo farm museum yesterday. She said to use a wire or a cheese cutter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slowrollwv Posted October 15, 2013 Share #6 Posted October 15, 2013 My grandmother and mother made soap and they used a cheese grater and it would then be put in a plastic bread bag till it was time to use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Myers Posted October 15, 2013 Author Share #7 Posted October 15, 2013 OK, reason I ask is my wife does soaps and candles , etc. I am about to build her a device, using wire, that will cut 12 bars at once. Just wondered if any one here had a soap maker in the family that may be interested in such a device. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djh3 Posted October 15, 2013 Share #8 Posted October 15, 2013 Ok had to find one a bit better. LOL Its been years since I saw a deminstration but I think it was sort of a square frame and had like piano wire across it. Would it help if you did it with the wire and induced low voltage to help "melt" the soap and candles?http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/2928/1114/1600/Fair060006.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

friesman Posted October 15, 2013 Share #10 Posted October 15, 2013 the cheddar cheese slicer , the type that kinda looked like a small fret or scroll saw with the rough wire strung tight. Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
