Pine Soap Decks - How We Make Them

There is nothing better than a sustainable clear pine soap deck, well in my opinion anyway :-) But they are great and here's why:

• Made of a sustainable product - Pine is a considered a sustainable wood because it grows quickly
• The pine is all natural and grown in the USA
• The deck allows water to flow through instead of pooling around the soap so no more mushy soap from pooling water!
• Helps soap to last longer which is especially important with handmade soaps
• Works great in the shower, next to a bathroom or kitchen sink, or by the bathtub :-)
• If you aren't handy and don't want to make your own, then you can buy them in our store!

Supplies Needed:

• One 8' long 1 x 3 clear pine (makes about 15 - 16 decks)
• Table Saw
• Miter Saw
• Ruler
• Sand Paper
• Optional wood burning tool

How We Make Them:

Cut first two slots. Set the table saw blade and make first slot cut. Then flip the wood around and cut the second slot on opposite side.

Reset the saw blade to cut the two center slots. Cut one slot, then flip the board around and cut the other slot.

Once all four top slots are cut, then cut the individual decks using a miter saw.

Individual cut decks.

Using the table saw again, cut two individual slots in the bottom of each deck. Cut one, then flip the deck around to cut the other side.

Sand all edges, corners, and slots!

Use a wood burner to add a personal touch :-)
