The expensive Loctite says it’s supposed to work for flexibility. So, if you were repairing something that would flex or receive an impact (they showed gluing a seam on a soccer ball) it might be worth the extra money. Otherwise, it does more than you need for an earring.

Polymer clay does actually flex (it’s not rigid like most other clays) so that may be why it works so well! 😊

Hello thanks so much for your tips! I’m very new at clay working and are currently using air dry! My question is can you use your oven that you cook food in or does it need a separate oven? Tia
@myclayco
@myclayco Күн бұрын
Hello! My pleasure! Polymer clay is non-toxic so it can be baked in your normal oven that you cook in. Obviously you want to avoid burning your clay, but if you accidentally did you should clean your oven before cooking in it again. Some artists prefer a seperate oven but we use our normal oven 😊

Ugh I saw this video a few days ago & I FINALLY got all the right tools for it today & I've been at it for hours now & can't seem to get the ball tool to glide smoothly around the clay like yours does. My clay keeps sticking to the tool & just dragging. So I used a bit of cornstarch on the ball which worked PERFECTLY, but then the clay was too dried out to stick inside each petal & when I used the dotting tool, it won't let go of the petal🤦🏻‍♀️

Do you need something like an extractor hood for toxic odors with polymer clay or can it just be baked in an oven in the kitchen and does the resin also smell strong/toxic?
@myclayco
@myclayco 5 күн бұрын
Polymer clay is non-toxic so you don’t need anything (just don’t burn it or you will need to clean your oven!). Before curing, resin definitely does have toxic vapours though so you need to wear safety gear and work in a well ventilated area (we recently released a video on it if you want to check it out 😊)

I have a question, what about tapes like those book repair tapes for archival purposes? I'm making color recipe clay swatches, the problem is i don't want to store them the way other people do with all of them splayed out in binder folders or stuck to papers because i want to archive every single color i ever make as well as having the freedom to move them around so i always know what colors go into making that color and i never have to guess again how to mix-up that color, doing that though would make a lot of colors and i don't want to collect binders because i'll end up with too many..... Instead i want to line them up Infront of each other in a box with a homemade divider to keep them in place, the problem is the label sticker i want to put behind them with their color name, the pen ink i use to write on them will transfer onto the fronts of the clay colors, and i cant wash them off or alcohol it off, so i wanted to use clear archival tapes over the pen writing to protect the clay swatches, but i don't know if they'll react with the clays because they said they're a solvent based adhesive, something called acrylic resin solvent. I'm getting sick of searching for more alternatives because everywhere i turn there's something annoying getting in the way of me storing my color recipes this way >.> Originally i just wanted to place a white label on the back of them and writing the color names on the labels and just being done with it, but then the stupid pen ink transfers even after weeks of it drying on the labels not touching anything, now i thought clear tape, but now i'm worried about solvent sticky bits coming on to the clays....
@myclayco
@myclayco 6 күн бұрын
I’m not too familiar with book repair tapes but my suggestion would be to check the components to see if they are oven safe. Washi tape works well because the top is paper based so can be baked at the lower temperatures of curing clay. As for your colour swatches, I’ve also seen ceramicists thread all their swatches onto large metal hoops like a set of keys on a keychain. If you’re worried about ink transferring to clay fronts, you could coat your label backs with a uv resin dome to seal it 😊 hope this helps in finding a solution to your swatching!

We are actually polymer clay cutter makers and that is the main part of our business 😊 We use Prusa machines and love them! My best advice if you’re looking at getting into 3d printing is to get a kit and build it so you know how everything works and how to pull it apart for maintenance and fixing. If you are into technology and problem solving it is such a fun thing to get into - our printers drive me crazy some days but I love being able to design and print our own creations!

@@emschrader418 oh sorry! I didn't realise you'd already gotten into it! Honestly I have seen other businesses with enders create the same quality cutters as us so it is totally doable! The tricky part is getting your settings right (both software and hardware). The other tricky thing is that all printers are different so I know that even with all of our printers I have to individually dial in the settings (phew!). So if you're not quite happy with your cutter quality, just try a few different things and see what the results are and hopefully you land on the perfect settings!
