Very neat, Dave. I have been wanting to try my had at making some good old lye soap like my gradma used to make. I watched her make it some, but don't have the recipe. Would you have a source for one? I don't want the fancy soaps like the recipes I find on line, I want the old lye soap that she used to wash her cloths with. I have some redered hog fat I want to use for this. I found a source for the lye, which is getting scarce, as I guess it's used in making drugs now. I just need a good recipe.
