By the way I do grate up my tallow based shave sticks when they get worn down to the plastic holder. They get grated into the Frankensoap tub. I've gotten some great shaves out of that tub.

This is a great idea Clayton- never thought to create a Frankentub of mixed soaps. Definitely going to though.

I do the the same thing. All remnants in the bottom of my completed soap dishes get put into a mystery tub.

It's about 150-200g now. A full to the brim QCS container. Surprisingly, it smells amazing. It has Haslinger, LaToja, Speick, PdP, MWF, RR, MdC and a few others in it

All evidence has been buried. All tapes have been erased.

That sounds like a great Frankensoap.

An old dog learned a new trick- thanks to you both.

I did not think of this. Thank you for putting the frankensoap idea out there. Always put the last sliver of bath soap with next. But did not think of shave soap.

Here is my "Mystery Soap".

Looks like I need a new tub.

Since I started wet shaving some 11 years ago it has become one of my favorite times of the day. Zen like and completely in the moment- no stress, the ritual getting me centered.

PS surprised nobody has mentioned grating their soaps yet Smile
I used to not shave for 5 days at a time and never on the weekends. Now it's my special time on the weekends, relaxed... Some music on... Yeah.

Hmm now I'm going to start saving my little remnants and do this. Cool idea!
