      Lye and oil makes soap, not lye and borax. The key in all these recipes is lye and oils, not lye and borax for anyone who isn’t going to click on the link and start mixing these chemicals. Lye can be real nasty if you don’t know how to handle it. It’s one of those chemicals where the safety precautions are there for a reason, not because it’s normal practice.

          Yeah, I’m just warning people who aren’t going to click on the link and instead start mixing lye and borax and wiping the counter with it

      That’s why Teslas are expensive and shitty. They’re diverting effort and funds to neutrino detection.
