It stands to reason that you can take four of these and make a circle norajean_sf: I'd add a separation sheet between all four quarter round shapes vlady6us: yep raven_hill_wench: I need to learn the trick to reducing lol vlady6us: practice raven. vlady6us: cool nj norajean_sf: yup, also condition the clay so it's got the plasticizers distrubuted, we're looking for a silly putty pull minimadness423: I wish reducing was as easy as shrinking on the photo copier...:D norajean_sf: so when we reduce the cane it'll stretch for us raven_hill_wench: me to mini norajean_sf: ever stretch Silly Putty? vlady6us: many years ago norajean_sf: it's the same sort of movement, but the clay has to be warm and conditioned so it's elastic minimadness423: years ago...will PC pick up a copy from the Sunday morning funny pages? raven_hill_wench: I should go buy some silly putty vlady6us: ive had pc pick up the writing on a package of pc vlady6us: made me mad cause it was white vlady6us: and writing on a piece of paper too norajean_sf: pinch and pull norajean_sf: that's what I do, pinch to get a purchase for my finger tips and pull in opposite directions minimadness423: Raven, to get the best feel for it take a single color of clay and reduce that one color after condition it well. mousefingers1: I'll be back....Uncle Sam hates competition vlady6us: ok pam minimadness423: how do you keep from getting big knobby ends like a dog bone? mousefingers1: :-? mousefingers1: >:D< mousefingers1 has left the conference. raven_hill_wench: the only problem I have with reducing is the colors mixing vlady6us: before u start to reduce a cane....gently squeeze both ends so they are smaller than the middle norajean_sf: Pat is coming vlady6us: u will have less waste creationsbypat has joined the conference. vlady6us: hi pat You have invited creationsbypat to view your webcam. norajean_sf: Happy New Year Pat, I'm goofing around with fish scale norajean_sf: Biz-Archive/Faux/FishScale/Thumb-grp creationsbypat: Hi ya'll Happy New Year raven_hill_wench: happy new year Pat! lunytuner has joined the conference. vlady6us: hi michelle norajean_sf: Michele, hey baby norajean_sf: let me send you an invite to cam You have invited lunytuner to view your webcam. norajean_sf: sent creationsbypat: NJ do another web cam invite it keeps saying busy You have invited creationsbypat to view your webcam. norajean_sf: sent Pat lunytuner: Hey girl! you must have seen me struggling with the tech stuff..hehhehe norajean_sf: I saw you online earlier but you logged out before I could send you an invite creationsbypat: got it thanks wwpeabody: Hey Luny creationsbypat: Hi NJ lunytuner: yeah - had the settings for full screen and couldn't minimize...it's the duh factor! norajean_sf: had to do a Mugging creationsbypat: Hi Lny lunytuner: thank you for the invite darlin' raven_hill_wench: I just spit pop all over my monitor lol norajean_sf: hit escape to reduce webcam screen norajean_sf: LOL Shawna norajean_sf: LOL lunytuner: yeah hadda do that minimadness423: Pop goes the monitor! creationsbypat: so what have yhou made today? norajean_sf: goofing around with fish scale norajean_sf: Biz-Archive/Faux/FishScale/Thumb-grp lunytuner: missed the dang mugging norajean_sf: We reviewed two blends at once norajean_sf: Oh Let me Mug for Luny creationsbypat: is that what we are looking at? lunytuner: Hello everyone..."happy everything to all of you" norajean_sf: more chins than the Chinese Phone Book vlady6us: same to you michelle wwpeabody: Hi Luny lunytuner: Awww...gotta love that mugging... norajean_sf: I got no shame lunytuner: sooooohappyyyyyyyyy you lookin' norajean_sf: So what did we do today...
