This is some testing I have been doing with the new forum setup. Mostly want to see how it handles media and photo's.

The pen is made by Toni Ransfield and we had it on the lathe when I took these video clips.

This one is resizing (shortening) the tube on the lathe. I do not recommend using a barrel trimmer but instead use a chuck, you have so much more control that way.

Ed,
This is a great way to share information.
Toni did a couple of polymer clay demos at the AAW Symposium last week.
She is quite accomplished.

Yes she did. I was in the back of the room making sure the door did not bang closed

I watched one of them. Very good demo especially if you ever tried to use polymer clay. The first thing she said was don't use Sculpy 111. Well naturally that's what I tried to use and could not get anywhere with it. Can't wait to try some of the brands she recommended.
