Sorry 😞
Hi which glu is good to use on polymer clay. The glue needs to be strong enough to use outdoors please?
Did you watch the video? I explain it there.
@@SandyHuntress So sorry just noticed it was posted 5 years ago. So sorry to have disturbed you. I think super glue would be my choice. Kind regards.
Thouse copper clays are not really available now to buy. So silver is better
You can buy them online, Fire Mountain Gems has a selection available.
Hello. This is great, but I see a problem: the gaps in the smaller washers. Hair might get caught in there. Probably would. i did not see any step to close that small cut. Do you press the circle closed to close the gap? Soldering would be really difficult, and mess up the look. Could a drop of glue be put in the gap, and sanded down to be smooth?
The best way to close it is like you would a jump ring. if you can wiggle the cut ends to meet tightly the jewelry should be secure.
Beautiful work, thank you!❤️❤️❤️❤️
You’re welcome, happy creating!
this video cleared a lot up for my jig and being a newbie, the cobra was the first one i learned 😊
So glad to hear you found the video helpful. 🙂 Happy creating!
Hi! I love your tutorial channel. I would like to make a replicate of this bracelet. Is it possible?... if it does, so where I can get the beads. ( it will be special gift for my two nieces)
I made this video quite a few years ago, so it’s doubtful that all of the same beads are still being sold. But I’m sure you can find similar ones to make your gifts for your nieces.
This is so fun to do. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
🙂
Fantastic
Thanks 😊
Great ideas.
😀
How many gram's of copper should i add in each gram of 24 carat's to make it 14 carat's rose gold plz....de calculations plz madam
I have absolutely no idea. That’s something you should Google for yourself.
I know this is a year old but in case you come across this video like I have sharing what I’ve experienced; Art Clay Copper works great with a torch for smaller pieces. The other brands I’ve seen disclose kiln only.
The package I used was labeled for torch firing up to a 25 gram piece. My pieces were much smaller than that, I’m guessing my torch wasn’t powerful enough.
Absolutely beautiful ❤
Thank you! 😊
I bet if everybody sent sculpey a message on social media, they would start making them again.
Eh, probably not. Companies usually have sound business reasons for continuing/discontinuing products.
this was so helpful, thank you! i couldnt figure out how to get it to stop leaking!
Happy to help! 🙂
I discovered this resin recently and I am thinking about giving it a try since it's non toxic. Alot of other resin companies claim that though , but I definitely believe that this brand is a good alternative to those that have concerns regarding safety. Thankyou for the review!
You’re welcome! ☺️
Awesome bracelet. So so pretty!! Very creative. Thank you!
Glad you like it! 😊
Black matte beads may be jet.
True, but these ones are glass.
Did not answer any time before use to set up and use. 😊
Not sure what it is you are saying. 🤷♀️
very clear and concise instructions, thank you!
You’re very welcome. 😊 Hope you found the video helpful!
Aluminum foil! Brilliant! I've been using floral foam, meticulously "shaving" it to fit inside the cup, poking in realistic looking artificial succulents. I'll try foil "filling" with a layer of foam on top. Thank you 😊
Sounds like a good idea! 👍
Hi Sandy, thank you for this wonderful video tutorial. I love how the registration holes work when you put the 2 parts of the mold together. What a great idea ❤, love from Amanda in Australia xox
You are very welcome, Amanda! Thanks for letting me know you found the video helpful. 🙂
where can you buy the paints, i have looked and they only come in kits for effects?
You can buy some of the colors at Michael’s. Others can be gotten on Amazon. Yes, they often come in sets of two or three, which is a better price than individually.
Over the years I have learned so much from you! I will always be so appreciative and greatful! Thank you sooooo much!❤😊
Thanks for the lovely comment, Sherri! I’m so glad to know you’ve found the videos helpful. 😊
Temu has face molds
Thanks for the info. 🙂
❤❤❤

Great tutorial. Thanks for sharing!
You’re very welcome! ☺️
My E6000 glue tube broke 💔 a little so when, I used it the glue would spill out I got annoyed..
Bummer! 😞
You're a genius ❤
You’re very kind to say so. 😊
🤷♀️
Regarding the "push" type extruder; i took two 2×4s about 21/2 feet long and joined them with a piano hinge. I then drilled a hole to fit the extruder barrel about 8 or 10 inches from the hinge on one of the 2×4s. Place extruder through the hole with the head of the plunger resting on the inside of the other 2×4 then press steadily and firmly on the end of the upper 2×4 and watch the clay come shooting out! Keep in mind that the discs that come with that type are thinner and not as sturdy as say a makins extruder but this is a way to use the cheapo kind if you're stuck with one!😊
What a clever solution!
Thank you for removing the cording and showing us a close-up of how to position the pliers onto the fold over end piece. I should have watched this video before doing my first two pieces!😄
You are very welcome, hope you found the video helpful!
I just bought a pair exactly like this and was looking for videos of projects to practice. Agreed, needs to keep in view of the camera. The one I bought was from JTV Jewel School. They call it the Wrap & Tap as you can also hammer your wire while it's on the pliers.
Sorry about not staying in frame. This is an older video. Hopefully I’ve gotten better since this one was made and that you got a little bit of something out of it. 🙂
thank you
You’re welcome ☺️
🙏

So true, buying new tools and storing them away! Oh my.
