Container for Melding Pieces of Soap

Abstract

An apparatus for melding two substances together, such as a soap sliver and a bar of soap.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . An apparatus that melds together a first piece of soap and a second piece of soap comprising:
 a first portion comprising a first surface and at least one sidewall coupled to the first surface, the first portion further comprising a plurality of settings in the at least one sidewall; and   a second portion that is positioned at one of the plurality of settings in the at least one sidewall.   
     
     
         2 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the at least one sidewall is solid. 
     
     
         3 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the first surface is the base of the apparatus. 
     
     
         4 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the second portion is a lid of the apparatus. 
     
     
         5 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the first surface and the at least one sidewall create a cavity that holds the first piece of soap and the second piece of soap. 
     
     
         6 . The apparatus of  claim 5 , wherein the second portion compresses the second piece of soap with the first piece of soap. 
     
     
         7 . The apparatus of  claim 6 , wherein the second portion comprises a compressible material. 
     
     
         8 . The apparatus of  claim 5  wherein a compressible material located between the first portion and the second portion compresses the first piece of soap with the second piece of soap. 
     
     
         9 . An apparatus that melds together a first piece of soap and a second piece of soap comprising:
 a first portion comprising a first surface and at least one sidewall coupled to the first surface, wherein the first surface and the at least one sidewall create a cavity that holds at least the first piece of soap;   a second portion comprising a second surface, wherein the second portion couples to the first portion; and   a compressible material that is positioned between the first surface and the second surface to press the second piece of soap into the first piece of soap when the second portion is coupled to the first portion.   
     
     
         10 . The apparatus of  claim 9 , wherein the first surface is a base of the apparatus. 
     
     
         11 . The apparatus of  claim 10 , wherein the base has drainage holes. 
     
     
         12 . The apparatus of  claim 9 , wherein the second portion is a lid of the apparatus. 
     
     
         13 . The apparatus of  claim 9 , wherein the at least one sidewall is solid. 
     
     
         14 . An apparatus that melds together a first piece of soap and a second piece of soap comprising:
 a first portion comprising a first surface and at least one sidewall coupled to the first surface, wherein the first surface and the at least one sidewall create a cavity that holds at least the first piece of soap;   a second portion that couples to the first portion, the second portion comprising a second surface that presses the second piece of soap into the first piece of soap when the second portion is coupled to the first portion.   
     
     
         15 . The apparatus of  claim 14  wherein the second surface is made of a flexible material. 
     
     
         16 . The apparatus of  claim 14  wherein the second surface is made of a compressible material. 
     
     
         17 . The apparatus of  claim 14 , wherein the first surface is a base of the apparatus. 
     
     
         18 . The apparatus of  claim 17 , wherein the base has drainage holes. 
     
     
         19 . The apparatus of  claim 14 , wherein the second portion is a lid of the apparatus. 
     
     
         20 . The apparatus of  claim 14 , wherein the at least one sidewall is solid.
