What can I make from 6g of silver clay?
I plan to buy PMC+ and PMC3 to test, 6g package each. I don't own a kiln, so it will be torching only.
I would like to make textured rings, and some creative setting for the single cab about 15mm.
I also want to try mixing clay with glycerine to make it flexible, but what minimum amount can I use for testing?
There is no store around where I can see what amount of clay is 6g or bigger to figure out how much to buy.
What practically can I make out of 6g? Should I buy bigger amount or just start with the smallest packs? Clay is pricey.

you could probably make a decent sized pendant with 6g and there should be enough to make a setting for a 15mm cab easy. Remember, unless its the new sterling PMC it will be very soft and so not great for rings.
Nice name btw, very funny

medusa thank you very much. At least now I know what to expect from that amount. I read that PMC3 is a bit harder than PMC+, that's why I would like order both of them to compare. I plan to incorporate PMC with my leather work, because both leather and silver clay have very matching "soft edge" properties. If clay will not make decent holders for leather, I need to find another way.
As for name, I'm a boiling bouillon these days, wasting my silver stash. Just yesterday I felt terrible and was thinking perhaps I made mistake starting all that jewelry studio.
I'm glad to find this forum, it really helped to re-charge.
