Nailart Polyslicer Combo Tool For Slicing Polymer Canes

[@ibasisters]

Thank you for updating your description on your latest test. As a clay artist, I appreciate it very much.

[@caro4art]

Cindy I contacted Helen and she re listed the combo on ebay and she now ships overseas and to Australia too. I just bought one... thank you Helen!

[@PolymerClayTutor]

Cara Letho That is excellent news!

[@darlene50vaughn]

Wow what a great tool!!!! I'm a novice with polymer clay and I learning soooooooo much. This tool features so many possibilities. Thank you for sharing.

[@amandac9644]

This was great - I looked at this on ebay, but wasn't sure how it would work. I do dollhouse miniatures and I bake the canes before slicing just like you would do for nail art canes, it is hard to get the slices as thin and straight as I want them. This looks like it will do what I want.

[@pegcarter6566]

Got mine this last weekend and it works great. And I got it in punky purple. YIPPEE!!

[@lorettahill5706]

Peg Carter how can I order

[@pegcarter6566]

@@lorettahill5706 I am not working in clay anymore. I just keep getting these emails. I hope you find one. Good luck.

[@dglenn7087]

Cindy, that slicer is genius! I love polymer clay and I love nail art! Great tool to do my own designs! Thanks for sharing this with us!!!!! Deb

[@NoelleLewisCrafts]

Sorry for the late comment but are there any marks on the base to measure the thickness of the slice? I am thinking of buying this since I make small/medium canes and have trouble slicing them evenly.

[@joselynerosinsky3291]

Bonjour, merci pour ce super tutoriel, pouvez vous m indiquer où acheter ce slicer, s il vous plaît? Merci d'avance. 🌺

[@lindeclark65]

I really wanted to see the widths it slices. I only saw paper thin ones. I make beads.

[@macer-music]

Hello Cindy! like i said in the PCT 643 you're a life savior!!! thanks for the info i think i'm going to by this little Combo tool.

[@RameyRocks]

I went to the site and didn't see it listed there anymore.

[@catelaine8706]

There is no slicer available with the link?

[@aspirecan4829]

I know this video is an older one, but I just found it. Does anyone have any idea where this tool can be purchased today? Thanks! I've Googled it, and I can't find any info on where to purchase it.

[@Ivyrose4]

I would love to see how to use the fimo canes for nail art since I got some for Christmas! 😉

[@sowhat6025]

Is there also a machine that automatically cuts the canes ?

[@MrSasyB]

I kinda wanna try this with fondant. I'm only scared it would be too soft.

[@PolymerClayTutor]

This product is no longer available anyway, but yeah, fondant would be tricky to cut in here because it is so soft. Perhaps if it were frozen, it might work, but with all the ridges in it, I think it would get all gummed up. A clay blade would work well though. Have you tried one of them to cut fondant?

[@frauleingermany4435]

That is clever. I did not know you can slice a baked cane!

[@charlottephillips4272]

Would you have a show about pasta machine..

[@connietucker3512]

I purchased this tool. Can you tell me why it does not cut straight. It seems to catch as I go down right at the corner if the cutter. Connie

[@FlowerGemsGirl]

Do you like this tool better than the polymer cane extruder tool for slicing? Or do you think this one has more usage options? I was thinking of buying one of these two but I would want an expert opinion. Like yours...😉

[@Yannarra]

I second this

[@PolymerClayTutor]

Flower GemsGirl and Yannarra Well, since each tool works a little differently and has different advantages... so which one would be best for you depends on what you are using it for. If you need the canes to be the exact size and shape every time (like piecing together perfectly square canes), then the Polymer Cane Extruder would be best for you. If you work with a variety of sizes as well as baked and raw canes, then the Polyslicer would be better for you. I will probably find I will go back and forth between tools, depending on the project... but I do know I'll use them a lot!

[@CaityRaindrop]

I see your description says you don't recommend this product anymore, is there one you do recommend?

[@gretagiardini1022]

Hi, I was just wondering why do you have a uv lamp in your polymer clay work area?

[@PolymerClayTutor]

Hi P. Edgecomb, No, I don't think that would work very well. It would be too hard to line things up without damaging either machines. You'd be better off either freezing the cane before slicing or using a scrap clay base (I have a video on that in my channel). Good thinking though... it is always good to try and think of different and new ways to do things! :)

[@helenkaredseason6846]

Please make a video about how we make fimo canes.. ( designs) I'm from Greece, and here we don't have stores or books to learn how...

[@CrimsonNorway]

She has at least one video tutorial on how to make canes- she has a huge range of tutorials on her website which you have to pay for. I doubt she'd make a full tutorial for free on KZbin, but there are plenty of tutorials done by other polymer clay artists here on KZbin.Good luck!

[@helenkaredseason6846]

CrimsonNorway thank you very much!!

[@elizabethphillips7838]

Cindy, Do you know where I can locate a Nailart Polyslicer Combo Tool For Slicing Polymer Canes, because they are no Respectfully, Elizabeth Phllips

[@JanineMKartist]

Yay my first cane for my painterly dragon scales look pretty good. Your videos are awesome! I just need more practice .

[@PolymerClayTutor]

That is wonderful! 💖💖💖

[@brandysparks3694]

The link for the slicer isnt working. Can you update the link please?

[@alphacat4927]

She said in the description that there were some changes to the slicer and she no longer endorses it.

[@caylamedley]

Where can i buy this now? i cant find it on etsy.

[@PolymerClayTutor]

Hi there, unfortunately this tool is no longer in production. But there is another (even better) 3-D Printed slicer from a different company that I highly recommend at www.clickaslice.com

[@Michael20106580]

Every time I see you test a new item, I just want to buy lol

[@dawnb1221]

I just saw this today and would love to buy one of these slicers. But, I. An not find it. Any suggestions on where to buy one?

[@PolymerClayTutor]

Hi There, unfortunately this product is no longer available.

[@dawnb1221]

PolymerClayTutor Thank you for replying so quickly. I found one on eBay. I love your site & videos!

[@lorettahill5706]

Hi how can I get this? Can’t find the store. How much they cost

[@PolymerClayTutor]

This product is no longer on the market.

[@reniebee1231]

Hello i looked this up and i could not find on etsy or ebay i know this video was from a while ago are they still in business?

[@PolymerClayTutor]

Hi Irie, no they are no longer selling this product. (The quality dropped considerably after this particular cutter was reviewed, so I guess that is good that it is no longer available.) A much higher quality slicer (though more expensive) is the Lucy Clay Mini Slicer. I have a review on that in my channel if you want to check it out. Thanks for commenting!

[@jernst777]

What are the chances of buying one of these - a purple one?

[@catherineluttermoser5818]

I have a question. I have been told that nail polish breaks down polymer clay. is this true?

[@PolymerClayTutor]

Yes that is true!

[@valeriel.181]

Hi, I bought this slicer a few weeks ago. But when I have used it, I was really disappointed. It doesn't cut the whole canes, and the canes aren't straight. The bottom of the cane is torn. I wathched your video many times, and I do exactly what you do, but it doesn't work. Could you help me? Sorry for my english, I'm french.

[@PolymerClayTutor]

Valerie LAVIS Hi Valerie, I talked with Helen the maker of this product and she asked if you could message her at her EBay store. She said she would be able to help her there. The link is up above in the description box.

[@alondralomeli5360]

Hi I love your channel and videos ! I was wondering how long should I bake polymer clay canes for and do I slice them before or after I bake them? Thank you

[@austinnadeau8756]

I wanted make a ring out of polymer clay to trying out making a retro cane & could not get it right

[@elizabethphillips7838]

Where can I buy a Poly Slicer Combo?

[@ankitamahajan330]

hii..i m new here..can i use microwave oven to bake polymer clay? is it safe?

[@PolymerClayTutor]

Ankita mahajan No you can not bake polymer clay in the microwave unless it was specifically designed to do so. It will quickly expand and burn... so don't even try it. My channel has lots of baking videos that will help, so make sure to watch those. And go to our site at www.polymerclaytutor.com for more info if you need it.

[@lostintime3297]

*_♥♥♥ I wish you a "MERRY CHRISTMAS" and a "HAPPY NEW YEAR" ♥♥♥_*

[@monicamartinez2008]

Fantastic!

[@thecraftcuckoo]

Great idea! Ooooh, what make is your UV light? I have just got some UV resin but when I tried to find a reasonably priced light they all had such bad reviews! Can you recommend any good brands?

[@PolymerClayTutor]

The Craft Cuckoo Mine doesn't seem to have a name on it but I also got it from Terry at epoxyjewelry.com It is an excellent machine and a great price. You can also get new bulbs from home if yours wear out.

[@thecraftcuckoo]

ok great. I will check that out Cindy, thanks and I wish you and Doug, and the kids a brilliant Christmas!

[@JaneMc51]

Good price for a slicer

[@crafttestdummies]

Did you try it on unbaked canes?

[@PolymerClayTutor]

CraftTestDummies Hi Jenny, yes the square pink and white Christmas cane in the video was actually raw. It also works beautifully on the round canes raw or baked. I guess I forgot to show that as well... sliced up everything in sight before the video though and it works great!

[@crafttestdummies]

Thanks, Cindy! Good to know!

[@crafttestdummies]

PolymerClayTutor Cindy- Thanks again for the great video. I'll be sharing this on CraftTestDummies with your embedded video and links to your website! Best, J

[@PolymerClayTutor]

CraftTestDummies Wonderful :-) I'll keep an eye out for your post.

[@Superduper666]

*frown* I don't do eBay. Her etsy shop doesn't show this combo kit. My fav color is purple and that's not an option.

[@PolymerClayTutor]

After this video went out, she sold everything she had listed. I am sure she will get more up as soon as she can. You could email her and let her know you would like a purple one. You never know she might be able to make one for you.

[@iamanartistbutcantdraw4454]

I kinda want this

[@leetau8429]

i want 1

[@dianepowell9877]

Kinda bummed, want one but she doesn't have any on ebay at the moment - msg her, hope she can get or make me one. Love this video. I have such a hard time getting uniform slices and can't afford the Lucy. Thanks

[@alphacat4927]

it looks 3d printed

[@lauramcclure4483]

oh I need that

[@cookiesiclink4734]

i think that thing is made from 3d printer

[@PolymerClayTutor]

Iclink Chloe I think you might be right... however the design is patent pending, so it isn't something you're going to be able to print up yourself.

[@sublimationman]

It is 3D printed. Great use for protoyping or short runs though if they are granted a patent it might be worth mass producing by injection molding instead. I love my 3D printer.

[@PolymerClayTutor]

sublimationman You're right! I am sure if this tool becomes a hit, they will get them molded instead of printed.

[@safehavensanctuary-hollyg.8814]

I am just watching this in February 2020 and am disappointed to read that they altered the design making it no longer a recommended tool. I thought I had finally found a useful cane cutter. The only improvement I would like is one that had a ruler attached so you could be sure your sizes were all identical.

[@PolymerClayTutor]

I agree it is disappointing!

[@MamaSunshine_ASMR]

I just got mine in the mail today, I'm not very impressed, Lots of sharp edges and plastic ridges, I'm very sad

[@PolymerClayTutor]

Yes I the quality has gone down. That is why I no longer recommend this product.

[@MamaSunshine_ASMR]

@@PolymerClayTutor I wish I knew that before I ordered it,

[@craftsydaddy]

Patented? Awww, so I can't download it from Thingiverse and go to my public library to print it from one of their 3D printers? I guess I gotta review what I learned from college to make my own. Shout out from Edmonton, btw.

[@PolymerClayTutor]

craftsydaddy how about you just buy it? It's only $40 and the people that invented it deserve to benefit from their excellent idea.

[@7Checkthisout7]

Awesome!!!!! Video =] I bought your learning lessons as well. Very good videos in your beadsandbeading.com site. Your a wonderful instructor.. You take your time and you nail it! I am looking forward to join your subscription as well. I am also spreading the word out because your site is.... AWESOME!

[@xjennifer]

Am i the only one who used it for slime 😂

[@debbiegaines1362]

Not a good investment. I bought one, dislike it.
