Follow along as I take an inexpensive wood cheese slicer and turn it into a soap cutter! If you've been drooling over a professional soap cutter, but aren't ready to spend a lot of money, stick around and see how the "cheapie" version compares. Building your own soap slicer isn't as hard as you think, and if you are tired of buying soap cutters that don't work like you'd hoped this video will help put an end to your frustration.

I am making my very first batch of cold process soaps tomorrow and was going crazy seeing the prices of professional cutters. I put this diy cutter together today and it was so easy to do. Thank you for saving me so much money!!!!

this was a great, informative video. i have been cutting my soap by hand, with a kitchen knife...less than stellar results. thank you for sharing!! 💚

@SoapAuthority 4 ай бұрын

Yes, using a knife works but it's pretty difficult to get uniform cuts. I'm glad you found it helpful!

@buggabee477 Жыл бұрын

Thank you! I need a soap cutter as I’m building up my stash and branching into selling my handcrafted soaps. I need to keep expenses down and this is a perfect way and a huge cost cutter!

I'm glad you found this helpful! How exciting to be moving into selling your soap! 😁

Thank you for this tutorial! I was able to glue a 1x1 scrap piece of wood to my marble cheese cutter by using E6000 glue. The process and the wait time are the same. Only the glue has changed. I also wrapped clear packing tape around the piece of wood. To keep the wood from scratching the soap.

I'm glad it was helpful! I love how you made it work with the marble cutter! Great tip with the tape, too. 👍

i was thinking about your design... wouldn't it be easier to take the wood piece that you glued on ..turn it down flat and put a couple screws? more durable?

@SoapAuthority 2 жыл бұрын

You could definitely use wood screws instead of glue! You would want to pre-drill the wood to make sure it doesn't split and keep everything aligned perfectly when both pre-drilling and inserting the screws. For me, using wood glue was easier and I'm not worried about durability since I'm only setting a loaf of soap up against it to keep it straight while cutting.

Thank you for this was going crazy thinking how I’m gonna cut my soap better

Yeah, trying to freehand cut really can be frustrating!

Great video! I think it's time to upgrade my cheese cutter. 😊

Thank you! That's a great idea. It's even cheaper when you don't have to buy it. 😁

all good until the wire loosens and stretches and you cannot tighten it enough

@SoapAuthority 2 жыл бұрын

Actually, it can be tightened at the handle if needed. Both on the beechwood version and on the marble one. If the wire eventually gets too loose or breaks, replacement wires can be ordered.

@sadiejackson774 Жыл бұрын

How has this held up? Can you change the wire if it breaks?

@SoapAuthority Жыл бұрын

It's held up just fine. Yes, you absolutely can change the wire if it breaks. You just order replacement wires for a few dollars. There's a little screw on the handle that you loosen to do the replacement.

The pink soap is about 2.625 wide and 3 inches tall ( 6.67 cm wide and 7.62 cm tall).

That's the exact same cheese slicer I bought & the wire & black codes was loose & crooked when I tried to fix it.. The wire almost too out my eye..🙄

@SoapAuthority 2 жыл бұрын

Yeah, sometimes you do have to adjust it a little bit to get it straight. I'm glad it didn't get your eye! I had a wire break and whip me when using a professional soap cutter, so it's good to wear safety glasses even when cutting soap!
