I'm wondering if a stabalizing bowl can hold water in it. I'm asking because I want to make some shaving soap kits to go with razors and brushes
 
Well, it should if it doesn't have holes in it (duh)... I asked Mel when I sent him some stuff how water affected it... He said he had set some wood outside his shop for several years and it looked like new once buffed. I think that's what you were asking
 
It should prevent just that, as the stabilizing resin should prevent the wood itself from absorbing any moisture. However, the resin won't fill any cavities or larger spaces, so water could seep through such.
