Abstract

A light weight portable device that may be utilized to save soap by subjecting the remnants of bars of soap to compression to reform the remnants into a solid bar of desired configuration, and surplus water associated with the remnants being discharged from the device during the reforming operation. After the remnants have been reformed into a solid bar, the bar may be ejected from the device by a simple manual operation. The device is particularly adapted to being formed in its entirety from a polymerized resin such as polyethylene, polypropyline or the like by conventional molding techniques.
