>AD< I put the Drilled Paua and the Sea - Beach Glass on Ebay this morning.

vj found this in rec.crafts.beads, from snipped-for-privacy@aol.combuybeads (BeckiBead) :

]Vicki -- I'm not into wire-wrapping, but thanks. I want Marisa to jump in here ]and set some in silver.

no problem! i'm no where near that far with silver yet.

I will not be using a kiln. The kit contains a mini blow torch for burning the clay off. There is a program on Sky TV that is devoted to crafts 24 hours a day. It is called Create and Craft and is on Channel

I'm pretty sure the firing would burn shell or bone, badly damaging it, if not destroying it.

Tina

Yes. But will lose. Don't have a lot of money to spend right now. On disability and very limited income. Oh well.

Are you able to sell (declare income) while you get your disability?

Tina

Just sent you an email... let me know if you got it?

Everything I do are gifts. I'm practicing til I can find my niche and get off the disability.

Me too--that and glass are on the list for this year!!!

From the little I've observed at retreats, it shrinks too much to be able to wrap something--its visually quite a bit smaller after firing than the original molds were. I'm sure the PMC info has exact amounts of percentage and so on.... Sarajane

no, I haven't seen that show here. But I have seen the blowtorch used--even the ones for creme brulee work, and its just one more thing making me want to do PMC.... Sarajane

My 2 cents... as I have no idea what the stuff is or what it does. lol

Though I have something in the works, I currently have no income. Both Pete and I are disabled and so are applying for disability.

Tina

Not more than 10%. I'll have to look it up. When it shrinks around something it make a very secure fitting.

Tina

cool---I will be learning much, I can see...I know many people use it to make settings first, then put polymer clay into it. Can't wait to do some parts for hand beads. Sarajane

Tina, I wish you all the luck and prayers. I've been told that it's hard to get on disability. If you are turned down, keep fighting it.

Did I hear my name mentioned? I've been off the group today. Set what in silver? what? who? how much? tell 'im he's dreamin'! LOL (reference; 'The Castle')

awww..you sweet thing!!! Thank you. Its cool people can spot 'em even without the name, tho, as that means I must be developing a "recognizable style"!
