I just used a Michael's coupon today for a pasta maker. I didn't know
they had stuff like drill presses. Of course, I've been sticking pretty much to the clay aisle, or gel candle making stuff Cheers, Carla Sjpolyclay wrote: Uh.....what? You're talking to the tool-impaired here Hi Carla! I'm technophobic myself, power tools scare me----but this ones pretty user friendly and takes up little space. You line things up, turn it on, pull the handle down then up----and there's a neat hole al the way through! Also, its variable speed, and I can set it slow---like at "2" so as to not go too fast and overheat the clay or stick. When there's a coupon at places like Michaels or Hobby Lobby you can get one very reasonably. The hand drill ones are good too, but as you say---its hard to line things up. And thanks--I'm glad you like my website. I'll have new things up soon----gotta get my scanner reinstalled and working. Sarajane Sarajane's Polymer Clay Gallery http://www.polyclay.com |

I have been waiting ever since you first posted about ventures into glass to
see what might come of it... and of course the first steps are as exciting to hear about as the next thousand will be. Thanks so much for the update. I've been going very slowly---its not the same, using someone else's studio space, and I've been trying to let them have at it first! But I'll be posting more about it when I've got the first batch cleaned up---then its on to making more!!! Its very cool to pour the frits into the molds--and later get glass thats in my faceshapes! But oh----PC is eversomuch easier to work detail into! Sarajane Sarajane's Polymer Clay Gallery http://www.polyclay.com |

Think I'll have a (white chocolate) Kit Kat; that should make me feel better (temporarily)! Cheers, Turtlelover If I didn't know you, I would have been worried by that offer! ;^D Thanks for the offer, Candace. Nice to "see" you here! Cheers, Sharon |

I know. I nearly didn't post it for that very reason. My friends and I used to play a game where they would give me a phrase, and I would have to give it back to them in a verbally sexual manner.

That grinding noise upon startup is likely a head rubbing against the hard drive or worse. It's just a matter of time until it croaks. If it only makes whacked out noises on startup, and you don't get the "blue screen of death" after the machine has been on for a while, consider leaving the machine on 24/7. But back up your data - you're going to be loading it onto a new hard drive and probably rather quickly. After seven years, you have definitely gotten your money's worth. Did I mention back up your data? Kathy N-V, BTDT Nice to see another RCB'er here, Kathy! I know that I've gotten my money's worth, but I can't afford a new one until I get a job. I just hope that it doesn't go into Never Neverland before I can replace it. Cheers, T |

Sometimes it sounds like an old sports car. hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhnnnnnnnnnnnnnn hnnnnnnnn Sarajane Sarajane's Polymer Clay Gallery http://www.polyclay.com It sure is scary. 8^( It doesn't make noise for very long, so that's something to be thankful for. It's *only* a 6GB HD, and I'm running out of room. Waaaaaaay overdue for replacement. DH made me laugh when he told me that I should have gotten the best/biggest/fastest, etc. machine at the time I bought it. He didn't know that whatever I bought would be out-of-date in six months! If I win the Powerball (yeah!), I'll reward myself with a new 'puter! Here's hoping, Turtlelover |
