Dear poly friends, I developped a new technique to tranfer Jones Tones foil to inked clay! First you photocopy a nice picture with a toner base ink , then you apply the copy face down on your clay. You burnish slightly and you apply acetone ( in your hardware store) with a Q-tip. The transfer on...

I'm using Future brand floor polish as a finish for some of my first pieces; after it dries, do I need to rebake in order to "harden" or seal the finish before buffing? Thanks! Allen Birmingham, AL

Marila I think you do a great job. I have trouble with hands, I can't seem to get the fingers right. Rita "Marika" wrote in message news:MPG.1a7f3e506e584aca9896d5@news... For those who might be interested... I finaly updated my online lessons today with a...

Some might think that having a single person show up would be a dissappointment, but for me it was perfect. My student and I had fun covering real blown eggs with clay, then she took off on her own and covered a pen and made beads! I got to explain a lot of the basics with her, and she saw how...

Maybe Richard was right; apparently this group is far enough below the radar that no one from the National Guild has posted that EoPC has been cancelled: From the EoPC discussion board at Polymer Clay Central (and several other boards): Dear Polymer Clay Community, It is with deep regret that the...

Hi folks, Have something new to show http://porro.claymountain.com/blog/index.php?/archives/217_Fossil_bracelet.h tml :) PöRRö --

I'm going to give polymer clay a try and bought a sample pack of Sculpy III from my local Wal-Mart just to play with and try. Since there is a limited amount of each color, how would the basic Sculpy white do as a base for making beads, hearts and other solid-core...

Since it's free listing day at eBay, I thought I'd try my luck again. Here's the link to my latest offering: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2681133158

I know that I've seen questions Kato clay previously, but cannot remember the exact 'fix" for this problem. I purchased the Kato clay samples, and am finally finding the time to "play" with the clay. It has been stored with all my other clay... Premo, Sculpey, and Fimo... in a temp controlled...

I've just purchased several polymer clay books...and I'm really disappointed. They are beautiful..with lots of great pictures of projects...but no real substance. Every PC book I seem to find either at Michael's or online have the 1st third of the book dedicated to the different kinds of clays and...

I've read about baking on styrofoam peanuts and other mediums but has anyone tried baking on a silpak sheet? (a non-stick liner for baking cookies and such.) I'd appreciate hearing suggestions on what is best to bake PC on. I will be making figurines about 5-8" tall. Also, how about baking in a...

Anyone familiar with Flex-I-Grit?? I need help identifying the sheets. A (long) while ago, I bought a package of Flex-I-Grit sanding film, made by K& Engineering Co. at Micro-Mark. There are 5 sheets with grits from 23 micron down to .5 micron (equivalent to 10,000 grit). They are made from...

Hi all, I have much experience in making printed circuit boards using photoetching techniques. Recently I got 10 Kgs of epoxy glass copper clad boards, double sided, from a friend that quitted his electronics activity. My past experiences with photoetching have been a great success if I used...

I tried not very successfully to transfer a picture to clay. I did visit Glass Attic. I had a book, too, but just couldn't get it to be clear and really transfer. Even left the pic on the clay in the oven, but it just didn't work. I had bought some lazer tran and the other similar paper, but...

Hello all. I am new to this group. I have read somewhere that it is possible to use T-shirt transfer paper for inkjet printers to make an image on Premo clay. Is this true? I am unable to find the source of the idea. I read so much at the library and bookstores (I know, I'm not supposed to do...

I want to attach paper to baked clay, but I don't want to bake them together. Which is the best glue to use for this purpose? Thanks so much, Maddy
