How to Use an Extruder with Soap Dough (Makin, Fimo, and Clay Extruder)

I wanted to create an updated video on how to use an extruder. There are three (main) different extruders out there: Makin 18mm Discs, Fimo 23mm Discs, and the Clay Extruder or Jerky Gun 57mm Discs.

I’m so glad I found your Channel! I’m relatively new to soap making but I’m drawn to the designs with embeds. I’m looking forward to ordering some from your shop soon ☺️

I have the I dream of soap extruder, and when I am extruding my soap dough, how do I avoid crushing the delicate parts of an extraction, such as little feet or ears. Also, once the dough is extruded, should you use it right away in your molds or do you have to let it harden

[@TheSoapArtist]

Delicate parts can be tricky. Some times they don't extrude well. Sometimes the softness/hardness or the soap dough can make it easier or harder. I try to extruder very slowly if I'm using the large extruder with delicate parts and make my dough a little softer to help. I tend to extruder my embeds and use within the week. If I'm going to use it with in 24 hr of extruding I don't wrap them, if I know I'll be using them a few days later I wrap them in plastic wrap to help keep them from starting to cure. I have used embeds that are older and have started to get harder without major issues, but I like to make and use within a week or so or making them if I can.
