PSA be careful buying lye. It has other uses than soap making, including stripping of carcasses to the bone, and then turning the bone into soap. If you order enough you might get a visit from your friendly government agent.

Damnit now I picture a little mouse in a 3 piece suit, hat, strolling down the street, only to be conned by some rat with a goatee. But in the end he wins by getting the rat trapped in a cage.

Years. Old. I'm now almost 60 and still haven't forgot that. Hopefully I haven't turned into the ass he can be
