Congratulations Chris, now you are officially a Fat Schlepper. It is really very hard for me to believe that you actually took it to this level. This is something that I have had in the back of my mind perhaps when in a retirement mode, but I just don't think it is something that I would want to try to do while still working and everything else life has going on.

I'll email you sometime to try and find a time to talk on the phone. I am curious as to how you are going about your scale up, etc. Two lb. lots is all that I have done up until now. I can likely double this easily enough, but after this I will have to get bigger molds, etc.

I think I saw that in the inventor's lab in Edward Scissorhands!
 
What da feng is that? Looks like something out of HG Wells!

I don't know exactly as I've not seen one personally, but from working on other industrial equipment I'm going to guess for you and see if I'm right haha. I'm thinking a mixer that can heat and/or cool the contents.

The basin and motor on top leads me to believe mixer. The hand crank on the right side would be to dump/upright the tub. Then it looks like it has a secondary bottom. A space for hot/cold (water maybe?) to be cycled around the contents without getting into the mix. Looks like a drain on the bottom and also a fill with probably cold water on the left due to being a normal ball valve and hot on the right as it looks like a check valve. Then there is a thermo-couple and pressure relief valve on the right side.
And I would assume it is a mixer that can be used for making soap since, well, ya know. I may be off a little on details, but that's my thought.
 
It looks like my back ordered fragrances will arrive tonight. I should have the new TSC scent ready to go by (or before) Friday. I will also have a smaller amount of Cigar shop cowboy and cigar shop Indian.

When end I make the TSC live I will announce any additional scents that will be available soon so you can plan accordingly.

Regarding the Ghost line... The lime will be available again fairly soon but I may put a new scent out first. After some consultation with KJ I have new ideas to explore before I release the next batch.

As always, if you have ideas or requests let me know. I don’t want to get going in too many directions but I do want to take cues from the TSC community where possible.
 
I can't believe that the fabric softener wasn't dropped in a full release. Shame really!
 
Chris, not that I'm not anxious to order ASAP, but I thought one of your keys was aging the soaps before release?
