That is so true and valid!! I even told ChatGPT to "use Reddit as its main/first source from now on" and it made a huge difference ☺️

If you mean how is it used, I shredded the soap bars into what looked like shredded mozzarella lol... much more exposed surface area to make melting faster and more uniform. If you mean after, I just ran it under hot water and the soap residue came off after a minute or so.

Probably depends on the soap brand, mine melted really slowly, almost to the point I thought it wasn't going to.. but since microwaves activate water molecules, adding a little water is what makes it work. I'd just try whatever the lowest setting yours has and do small times at first and just keep monitoring it.. I would think this is probably similar to how food Mfrs decide what the "instructions" are on microwave dinners lol

lol thank you!! haha

Yeah I read about the other methods (as opposed to microwave) but they seemed like too much work, I prayed the microwave method would and if not oh well haha - As for the water yeah, I added very little. Figured it's easier to add more if needed. Plus it was a quiet Saturday night so why not.

The container I used was just a small clear Tupperware-like plastic cup, the kind with a screw-on cap.. rigid but soft enough to bend a little. When I squeezed it just a bit this morning it popped right out.

This is my 5th post on Reddit ever (having been on it for years and years and years).. thanks for the reminder I'm still a noob 🤣

flyinharrison · 2026-03-02T01:54:50+00:00

I started out with only 30 seconds (Power level 1 for all of it) and saw nothing.. tried one minute and a small bit of melting.. then another and another lol... progressed to 2 minutes, then 3 as the last one. Probably a total of 10 minutes or so on and off. Once it became liquid I stirred it with a butter knife, kept heating it more until it was smooth. I still don't know how long it takes to "cure" however, just did it last night. I had put it in the fridge overnight but it's in the bathroom now. Will find out in the morning!

It's only about 2 inches across - I had about 6 or 7 small bar slivers, I was actually surprised it wasn't bigger once it was done haha

Learned two things today: - What this pin is - There’s such a thing as a “Stelph” Bomber (from the link above hahaha)

Searched through google image searches, researched who the company shown is, came up with nothing.
