Sorry I don't have any pictures of it cut, but After The FDA Changed Laws on Selling soap, I got very depressed and deleted a lot of my pictures of soap, I very much regret that decision.

40% Virgin Olive Oil
25% Coconut oil
20% Pig Tallow
10% Shea Butter
5 % Castor Oil
Water to Lye Ratio of 2.7 : 1 ratio of water to Lye

6.4 Ounces Pig Tallow
3.2 Ounces Shea Butter

I DO NOT recommend making soap without at least MINIMUM research on the subject, and with ANY recipe run it through a Soap Calculator Such as the one Here.
