Just found this interesting article on the new Art Clay copper clay...no mesing around with carbon filled pans!! I could almost be tempted!!

I've got some in the fridge ready to do testing with after the Christmas rush has calmed down a bit.
So far feedback from the metal clay community has been good but there are a few teething issues and there's more clean up to do.

Ok spill the beans lol - who's supplying in the UK? Has Petra got it at Silverclay?

I can't wait to try that and the new powder form that you mix up as you go.:xmaslaugh:

Last time I looked they were out of stock but I think they have it back now... Zama UK: An Official Distributor for Art Clay Silverâ„¢ and Japanese Enamels. (http://www.zamauk.com/). I've not seen it elsewhere in the UK.

Somehow I thought you would be interested, Annie!!

Yes indeedy, thanks for that. :X

I threatened to quit work this week because they keep cancelling/ changing my days off at short notice, they know I wasn't serious but the point needed to be made. As a result I have three days off this week so I'm hoping to get some more pieces fired. It's so frustrating when you have so many ideas to try but you have to get all the serious adult things out of the way first lol. :xmaslaugh:

OOOOH you've posted Barbara, does this mean your PC is finally back and sorted now??? Welcome back. [] Your input has certainly been missed, though I haven't managed to mess up opening any glue, or other seemingly impossible things to open - yet! I'm sure it won't be long before I'm calling upon your sorting me out services!

A big thank you for all your help in 2009 :D I can now fraycheck things and every time I do, I think of you and your instructions and how they made us all laugh at my #-o moments.
