That's such a cool idea! It turned out really well. I love how the fossils dissolve more slowly too.

Woah. Beautiful effort! The similarity you managed to reproduce in both color and resolute texture are spot on. It would be so cool to put the reference rock you found (which absolutely blew me away) in that CT/X-ray scanning machine Curiousmarc recently got the chance to use on his Apolo mission components. Nevertheless, hats off to you sir.

Cody saying that the surface of the rock is just a 2d slice gives me an idea, what if you cut a rock like this, took an image of the cut surface, ground a little bit more of the surface off, took another picture, and kept going all the way through, you could end up with a 3d volume of the rock, and reconstruct the fossils in 3d. Has anyone done something like this?

we already do that with animal specimen. They impregnate organs/bits of tissue with plastic resin (it's called plastination), then cut it into super fine slices, generally with diamond blades. They don't normally reconstruct a 3d model with it though. They're encased in microscope slides for observation. Obviously its very useful to teach med students etc, but it's also used in diagnostics, since it allows doctors to see exactly the shape and arrangement of cells, which can help identify different types of cancer for example.

i reckon a little bit of finely ground pumice would add an interesting (and possibly more authentic) "feel" to the soap. perhaps use that in the portion of the soap that is mimicking the calcite inclusions. just a thought.

I was expecting 3D printed or machined molds for the fossils, but was pleasantly surprised with the handmade process. It looks like a fun project

Great job! Must have taken a while to make all those fossils. The color matching turned out excellent.

This was such a cool idea! Love how the “fossils” dissolve slower so they poke out!

I actually got into the hobby of soapmaking from your first video I discovered on it where you made soap completely out of beeswax. Been really fun creating something for fun that also has a function. Thanks for the awesome video's.

Oh please, great KZread algorithm, let this get the exposure it deserves. All the algo puts on my recommended page lately is trash. I want more Cody'sLab videos! I have notifications turned on but I swear I never got any notification about the last 10 or so videos nor did they ever appear in my recommended. EDIT: Finished watching to the end, and wow. This is the coolest thing I've seen on KZread in a LONG time. I never knew soap could be formed like that. Thank you, Cody, for putting the time and effort into producing this video and sharing with us. I really appreciate it and look forward to trying something like this myself!

Really taking your creative impulses to a whole new level!! I was already impressed before you wetted it and rinsed away some of the gray but once you did the effect of the relief making the fossil bits pop was astonishing and made it look so much more like the real thing. Would love to see you take this further and really perfect it, maybe increase the fossil density, add some more mineral inclusions, etc. No joke I'd pay good money for some of this

This is so cool! It looked really incredible as well as working as actual soap - not to mention the different soaps wearing off at different speeds

I would buy fossil soap in a heartbeat, this is so cool!! Love how you made the fossils harder so they start to stick out after use!

I found this so much more interesting than watching my usual TV soap.

I always like watching you, especially your habit of using metric units, makes it just that little bit more digestible for us non-US folk. Not that should eat soap, or lye. I found out in chem class that bases are really good for cleaning and quite "soapy" ie slippery. I bet I drop my teacher batty I always tried to find "unapproved" uses for all the cool chemicals. But my teacher and I stayed after school once to make "moderate" amounts of nitrogen triiodide, with expected results. No one was harmed, and property damage was minimal, only the stains remained for years. But after that no more practical investigation into unstable nitrogen bonds. 🤣 I said bonds...

im in a super bad time of my life and seeing your video made me cheer up. thank you a bunch for this and i loved the idea of the soap. Kinda want to make my own soap now lol

Hey Cody, look up the word "wackestone" Also, the Carboniferous goes from about 360-300 million years ago, so if it's 250 mya, that would actually make it from the latest stage of the Permian. However, I suspect that _is_ a Carboniferous wackestone, since you're in the south-western US and it reminds me somewhat strongly of certain formation I know. Also also, those are probably brachiopods, not clams - remember, you can always tell if the two valves (or shells) are symmetrical with one another, it's a bivalve, if the valves are not mirror images of each other, it's a brachiopod.

As an avid crinoid calyx collector, this video idea is awesome. Would like to see some other related content in the future!

Absolutely love the concept and the process looks satisfying and fun! If you did geodes or other rocks too, you could make some pretty nice gifts for people as well.

This is such a cool idea, I bet a soap company would actually run with the concept and make a professionally made line if you got in touch with one.

wow, this is so freaking cool! also the buttery consistency of the soap before it's cured is oddly satisfying.
