Article: Add 1 ½ cups (353 ml) of water and ¼ cup (9 ml) of tightly packed, grated castile bar soap to a medium saucepan, and place on the stove. Turn the heat to medium-high, and allow the mixture to heat until the soap completely dissolves, which should take 5 to 10 minutes. Remove the pan from the stove. Stir the mixture as it’s heating to help the soap dissolve more quickly. Once the soap has dissolved completely and the mixture is off the heat, mix in ¼ cup (60 ml) of liquid castile soap, 2 ¼ teaspoons (10 g) of super washing soda, and ½ teaspoon (1.5 g) glycerin. Stir well until all of the ingredients are fully incorporated. Washing soda is usually found in the laundry aisle of large grocery stores. If you can’t find it locally, you can order it from a variety of online stores. Leave the soap mixture in the pan, and let it sit for 24 hours. Stir it periodically during this period to get a feel for the consistency. The soap will thicken up over time so it’s okay if it’s a bit runny. If it seems too thin, though, you can warm the soap up, mix in additional washing soda, and let it set again.  If you’re adding extra washing soda, start by mixing in ¾ teaspoon (3 g) and letting the soap sit again. If it’s still not thick enough, mix in the washing soda in ½ teaspoon increments (2 g) until it’s the right consistency. If your soap has chunks or lumps, smooth it with a blender or an immersion blender. When the soap has reached your desired consistency, add 15 to 40 drops of your favorite essential oil. Stir well to ensure that the oil is blended throughout the soap for a fresh fragrance, and pour it into a soap dispenser for use beside the kitchen sink. You can use any essential oil that you like, but citrus oils, such as lemon, lime, and orange, are particularly effective in cutting grease. Juniper and lavender are also good options.

Heat the water and grated soap until the soap melts. Add the liquid castile soap, some washing soda, and glycerin. Allow the soap to set. Mix in the essential oils and transfer the soap to a soap dispenser.
Article: Put your key in the ignition and turn it to accessories mode. Open the fuse box, then insert the tester’s probe into the tiny port on the face of a fuse. If the tester lights up, the fuse is working properly.  Using a test light is a great way to find a blown fuse when you can’t identify visual signs, such as a broken filament or black marks. You can find car fuse test lights online, at auto shops, and in the automotive department at most major retailers. The tester has 1 or 2 prongs that fit into the tiny test ports on the outside face of all automotive fuses. Set your multimeter to test resistance; the setting looks like the Greek letter omega, or “Ω.” Turn off the fuse box’s main power switch, then remove the fuse you’d like to test. Set the fuse glass-side-down on a non-conductive surface, such as a wood workbench or laminate counter, so the metal plug end faces up.  Plug fuses, which are often found in home fuse boxes, have threaded terminals that look like the ends of standard light bulbs. To test it, touch one of the multimeter’s probes to the very tip of the fuse’s terminal. Touch the other probe to the side of the terminal near where the threading stops. If the multimeter displays a resistance between 0 and 5 Ω (ohms), the fuse is good. A higher resistance means a degraded or potentially blown fuse, and a reading of OL (over limit) means the fuse is definitely blown.  Like an automotive test light, using a multimeter to test a home plug fuse is a good solution if you suspect a blown fuse but can’t find any clear visual signs. If your electronic instrument or appliance is on the fritz, remove the fuse according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Typically, electronic devices use tube-shaped fuses with a glass body and terminals at each end. Set your multimeter to test resistance, and place the fuse on a non-conductive surface.  Touch one of the multimeter’s probes to each of the fuse’s terminals. As with plug fuses, a resistance reading of 0 to 5 Ω means the fuse works. A higher reading or a reading of OL means the fuse is bad. You can inspect cylindrical fuses for broken filaments or charred marks just like automotive and plug fuses. However, if you can’t see clearly inside the fuse, testing it with a multimeter can help you figure out whether or not it works.

Check automotive fuses with a simple test light. Test a plug fuse with a multimeter if you don’t see signs that it blew. Use a multimeter to test cylindrical fuses in electronic devices.
