Bathtub Soap Tray V2

As expected, the adhesive foam strips I used on the bathtub soap tray didn’t survive continued exposure to hot soapy water, so Version 2 includes hooks securing it to the ceramic soap tray and a few other tweaks:

The hooks are more visible from the bottom, as is the 10 AWG copper wire preventing the whole affair from rotating around the ceramic handle from the weight of the soap bar:

Ignore the usual crud you’ll find on your ceramic soap tray, too.

This time I glued things together with Weld-On IPS #3 acrylic solvent.

Is the original soap tray supposed to work as a handle as well? ( From the category “Nice idea but..”)

Anyhow, there’s a bright future ahead:

Tray V3: Added quick release for easier cleaning.

Tray V4: Cutouts for razor and a wine glass holder.

Successful kickstarter campaign and renamed “EasyTray”.

The EasyTray company goes bankrupt after sued by a woman who slipped on a bar soap and cut herself on an empty wine bottle.

  I think you’re onto something, although Step 3a would involve an acqui-hire by a Big Name firm, so I wouldn’t care about Step 4. :grin:

  No, it looks like a handle, but is not. Using it as a handle will pull it off the wall. Ask me how I know.
