When used as a log splitter, the Caterpillar can handle logs from 1/8 inch up to 4.5 inches in height, with adjustment slots every 1/8 inch for fine-tuning.

Excellent communication, very helpful! My order was shipped quickly and very well packaged. I received my tool 3 days ago and was delighted.
I tried horizontal and vertical cutting. It is accurate and easy to use. I can only recommend it!
The Caterpillar is beautiful and sturdy,.like it will last a good long time. It cuts beautifully and the package came with every possible tool, including a metal ruler. Great job
I don’t know why it took me so long to purchase this! It took me a bit to figure it out but once I did, it made cutting my slabs so much easier. Thank you for creating the the caterpillar.
It’s amazing ! My soaps are evenly cut now .
I love this new soap cutting station. I have made three batches of soap and run it through the machine or the cutter and it cuts just beautifully. I wish I’d had this a long time ago..

This thing is has got me obsessed. I cant put it down . Beveling is so easy with this tool!! 10 outta 10 recommend
Loved my Hercules cutter. It saves space as I no longer need the big bulky cutter and the loaf splitters. It’s light, and easier to store. Made of quality materials and built sturdy.
love the product. Well made with great quality.
I was using 4 small loaf molds to make about 40 bars per batch. Since I started using the Goliath, I make about 84 bars. And it's easier to pour in one big mold. This mold has mor ethan doubled my production and made the job even easier. I'm going to buy one, maybe even 2 more. Great product!
Perfect size, easy to clean. Really stepped up my market game with this mold. Silicone is much better quality than Amazon molds. And Alex's are super good to work with. Only bad side is I need to get a 2nd one to keep up with my happy customers.
Took me a minute to figure out, no instructions, however a video on the website helped!!! NICE, cut the slab I made quickly and evenly. Very sturdy.
These molds are amazing! THE best quality while somehow still being gorgeous. The customer service was also outstanding. Note, these are custom order so they take a little while to get. Sooo worth the wait. I cant say enough about myexperience. Will definitely purchase more once my business grows.
very nice and easy to use
I purchased 2 "Groot" molds and both are amazing! Solid, thoughtfully crafted, and exactly what I needed!! Thank you!
Hand down the best slab mold!! This is the perfect mold to make tall skinny bars that are 2.25 inches wide instead of the standard 2.5-inch bar width.
I've used this mold 3 times. I get 4 loaves totaling 64 bars. I made a 1/8-inch diminisher with some HDPE I bought at Home Depot so that I wouldn't have a long 1/8-inch strip of soap left over when I'm done cutting into loaves, but you could just as easily not bother with that at all. I do it because I absolutely hate waste.
I cut each bar just under 3cm thick with my caterpillar soap cutting station (also from Custom Craft tools) and when it's all said and done I have only 5-6oz of waste/extra soap.
I know some like that extra for samples, not me. With the price of oils/butters soaring, I want the least amount of waste possible. I'll cut up a bar if I want samples, I don't want them by default.
This mold is extremely well made, very solid, will last my lifetime and then some. Love the handles (moving 20lbs of wet soap can be challenging). It has markings for embed placement.
With larger slab molds, refrigerating if soap starts overheating is not an option, with this mold the sides are removable to quickly cool down cracking soap if necessary. I make all got milk soap so I really appreciate that feature.
I can't say enough about this mold. I'm so happy I made this investment. I have molds from other companies; Workshop Heritage, Essential Depot, a few from Etsy, those cheap purple Amazon molds...none of them can hold a candle to this mold or the wonderful customer service you will get from Custom Craft Tools.
So, if you want large batch sizes of tall/skinny soap from a mold that you'll be able to use for years to come, then you need this mold.
I needed a special-sized cutter for my current molds. They helped me every step of the way to be sure it would work for my needs. I love it. It definitely speeds up the cutting process. Plus, I handle the soap less in its delicate stage, which is always a plus. I highly recommend these slab cutters.

love the product. Well made with great quality.
I love Hercules. More affordable than caterpillar, and after asking customer service, does not have big enough differences for the hobbyist I am. Caterpillar is longer, and both have 1/8 th in increments for slab cutting. I already have a multibar cutter, but having this one opens multiple possibilities. The 1/8 th in difference doesn't show if your mold gives a slab slightly thicker or larger. Ii is strudy, easy to clean, easy to use - just make sure the wires on both sides stay in the chosen position-. It came in less than 3 weeks after ordering. I had to pay 53$ custom fees for delivery in Canada. I was expecting something like that. I am very happy with it. Thankyou!
