    Default DIY scuttle for $5

    I originally went into Kitchen Collection at my mall to price out a stainless steel double walled mixing bowl. In which i was going to drill a couple holes on top and call it a day. However i could not find a double walled bowl anywhere. This is what i walked out of the store with....

    measuring pitcher - $3
    single wall stainless steel bowl - $2

    While at the store i found a stainless steel bowl that fit perfectly onto a measuring pitcher, and the light bulb went off. It is basically a regular scuttle without the grooves on the inside of the bowl.

    I put a large rubber band i had lying around the outer side of the bowl to stop the bowl's buoyancy and keep it tight down in the pitcher. I can then either take the bowl out to fill/empty/clean the pitcher or fill/empty the pitcher via the spout (although much slower).

    I have used it several times and am quite pleased. My brush and lather stay warm throughout the entire shaving time.

    The one thing i cant seem to think of at the moment is a way to put grooves in the inner bowl to help create the lather. Ideas? I have thought about using a dremel to gouge out a web shaped design but then i figured i would ruin the brush.
