modeling by [email protected]
I'm thinking of getting into clay modeling. Could someone tell me where I can pick up some plasticine? For instance, does Walmart sell it?

Best fabric for (homemade) buffing wheels? by [email protected]
Can anyone suggest what sort of fabric to use for a homemade buffing wheel for my tiny little Craftsman rotary tool? I've made one from some cotton fabric -- left over from hubby's pajamas -- and it (kinda) works, but it has lost much of its coherence quite quickly. I've read that denim or...

Sad news and a (sorta) AD by Barbara Forbes-Lyons
Our girl doggie, Babes had a small skin tumor removed on Monday and the lab results are back and it's a level 2 sarcoma (cancer). We need to have additional surgery done, plus drug therapy and possibly some 'cancer hunt' type tests to determine if the cancer cells have spread to other areas, like...

Best clay for charms by Marisa Cappetta
Hi, all. I want to make some charms and would like to know which clay is the strongest for this purpose. I've used Fimo Sculpey and applied some pressure tests and it seems to break fairly easily. I'd appreciate any recommendations. -- Marisa (AU/NZ) http://www.galleryvittoria.com She said, as...

First Bead :) by mermaidscove
http://www.mermaidscove.com/photos/firstbead.jpg Made my first bead, since I started playing with clay again. The shape is from a mold and she's got metallic powders, antiqued and a wee bit of glitter on the tail surface. What do you think? Ingrid

This thing called clay! by Polly S.
I think I am at least finding some (temporary?) limitations. Which is, funny enough, sometimes a good thing! 'Playing' with this stuff (!) I have tried a lots of different things and found that for small pieces there is basically adding and/or taking away clay. Among other things, I've tried...

Surface for Working w/ Clay? by Polly S.
I was wondering what kind of surface y'all use for working with polymer clay. I have tried ceramic, glass and waxed paper but they none have been 'non-stick' enough. I checked the price of the silpats (silicone baking mats) and, unless I find one locally, the price + shipping is ludicrous! Thanks...

Liquid Kato by Arondelle
I know I'm not the first person to do this, so I need some quick guidance. I molded a little moon face, brushed it with Perfect Pearls Interference Green, baked it. Then, I coated it with Liquid Kato, and baked it. Well, it doesn't say on the bottle what the recommended TIME for baking is, just...

question about hand lotions & polymer clay by Marissa Undercofler
Since I am still new to the world of polymer clay, I have a question regarding hand lotion and polymer clay. I have very dry hands, so any cracks in my hands pick up the clay, as well as leave marks..I also have a few places on my fingers where the skin is so dry that it has flaked a bit and left...

Some of my PC work (link) by Turtlelover
This is one of those "duh" moments! I rarely check the homepage of my ISP, and I usually ignore the offers they send by email. I'm glad I finally checked, because they offer a free picture album! (And I'm working on the free web page.) I don't know the storage limitation, but I've posted a few...

Clay guns by Trinker
I was all set to go out to Michaels and buy myself a Kemper clay gun, only to find that they don't stock those anymore. They had one from Pro Arts, and another one that was plastic. Anyone else here have any experience with those, or recommendations for better products? Thanks.

Newbie needs help with canes by JAMES RICH
I've been experimenting with polymer clay for about a year with a little success; one thing I'd like to do more of is canes. I've done a few with some luck, but many of them seem to lose definition when I reduce them, which I understand is not supposed to happen. And even my ones that stay nice...
