Pasta Machine Question by
Rachel
I have an Atlas and even though I clean the rollers with alcohol daily
and keep the machine covered with Saran wrap when not in use, I find
that sometimes when I put clay through it that I get these little
black smudges of dirt in the clay. Sometimes they are small streaks,
sometimes they look...

Carla
Hi all,
Well, I've finally got enough stuff unpacked and set-up so I can get
back to the really important business of making beads/jewelry g. Of
course, the rest of the apartment is still mostly a wreck :)

so far; and...

Stand-alone letters or on stamps. If on stamps, then not reversed.

least 1/32" thick (if on a smamp then raised that high), but
prefereably 1/16" thick.
Anyone...

Two questions from polyclay newbie :) by
[email protected]
Hi, just found this group and wondering if anyone might be able to help
me. I use Kato Polyclay and so far I really like it. Kind of stiff
and hard to get conditioned but not too bad. I'm wondering if anyone
has a sanding idea that doesn't require hand sanding with sandpaper. I
have problems...

Help me be nosey by
PenguinTrax
Prior to her surgery for a recurrence of melanoma, I joked with my MIL
that I was going to make her a polymer clay nose to wear until her
reconstruction surgery would be complete. In discussing the project
with my dear friend Diana, the uber-enabler, we decided that my MIL
deserves dozens of noses....

Stupid clay, stupid me by
Carla
I ordered, and received a rotary tool (imitation Dremel), to use for
buffing beads. I had it up and running last night and was *much*
impressed by the results.
Around 8:00 p.m. I got the bright idea to go through all my clay stash,
stuff that wasn't already strung or made into something else;...

What I've been up to lately by
Katherine Dewey
Scroll down to my newest piece titled "Mabb held out her hand". There are
others in the works, all with babies in one scale or another. They're my
latest preoccupation. The hand in this piece is life size.

DO YOU HAVE TO USE A KILN? by
brat352
I am very interested in starting to learn about poly clay crafts and am
wondering if a kiln is absolutely necessary. Would my home oven work as
well (it's electric, not gas).

transfers by
Carla
Hi all,
I was reading about transferring images to clay on the Glass Attic
website. While there's a *ton* of useful info there, I was wondering if
anyone could provide something more basic; along the lines of
"Step 1 - do this.
Step 2 - do that.
Step 3 - etc."

Very Old Fimo by
Suzie-Q
I have some really, really, really, really old Fimo. It's
so old that I don't even remember when I got it. Most of it
is still in the original pacakaging and, when I squeeze it,
it feels sort of soft.
Is this Fimo still usable, or should I toss the whole lot?
If it's good I plan to sell it at a...

usual, and if you mention this ad, I'll provide the (USA only) s/h cost at

kato clay question by
Carla
Yesterday, I picked up my first package of Kato polyclay. I know it
comes highly recommended. When I opened the package, I was struck by
the *very* strong odor from it. I worked with it for a bit (easy to
knead right out of the wrapping) and started shaping some beads, but the
smell started to...

Stephanie
Does anyone know if the baking heat for polyclay and or the fumes will change
the color or opacity of rocks and crystals? It's clear quartz crystal I am most

Paint and Polymer Clay by
Anna W.
I'm still new to polymer clay so I hope my question isn't too dumb. I also
need to say that I know absolutely nothing about paint. I covered a paper
mache box with polymer clay and used gold leaf on the top. I used a rubber
stamp (with a swirly pattern) to decorate the bottom part of the box. I...
