    Best tutorial I've seen so far in polymer clay! The way we see the material from the "equator" moving into the middle of the bead - impressing!!

    Thank you Cindy ! I understand better now the movements of the dough. I thought she was just spinning as she climbs too. It is very logical of course since the lens rises in tip more tapered.

    Thank you so much Cindy. I have watched so many people across RUclips making these, but they have simply failed to explain in any detail the mechanics of making them. I will watch this a few times and have a go at making a small one for the BPCG Anniversary in Sept when we are all taking beads (I am very new to clay) for a national children's Cancer charity called Beads of Courage. It's a wonderful cause and I hope people look it up on the BPCG Website or Google it. All the best from Scotland xx

  • @brikhouse22
    @brikhouse22 9 лет назад +13

    That pretty awesome to watch when you did the second one with the mod cane pieces. You could probably make some kind of jig or tool to do this. If you take one of those stamp blocks, drill a hole in each corner, take a bolt and put a nut a bit in from the end, put it in the hole and put another nut on the end to secure it in the block, do this to each corner so you have 4 "feet" like a little table and then add a felt pad to the head of the bolt like those used on furniture or coasters so the block will freely slide on a smooth surface. You could adjust the height to make any side bead by moving the nuts up and down on the bolt and you could also make them pretty consistent in size and shape. Hope that made sense.

    Thankyou for sharing your talent and creativity, greatly appreciated. :) Been wanting to make beads for ages, but thought it would cost me quite a bit of money for the bits and bobs so been saving up. Your ingenious use for the CD case was just brilliant and not having to get bead makers etc will save me money that i can spend on some great clay colors to make (hopefully) beads as beautiful as yours.

    • @PolymerClayTutor
      @PolymerClayTutor  3 года назад

      Thank you for your kind comments! There are lots of improvised tools you can find in your house to get started. I would suggest watching several of my videos on bead making, baking and working with polymer clay in general. The one tool I would recommend getting is a separate oven thermometer. They are around $5 or so at the grocery store but will save you from under baking or burning your clay. Have fun, practice and enjoy the learning process!

    • @SmilyLily1996
      @SmilyLily1996 8 лет назад

      but be careful, hard plastic often reacts with polymer clay, so any leftover clay on the plastic can eat away at it and melt the plastic, which ruins the plastic as well as the clay that's stuck to it.
      That's why I'd be careful with the CD cases.

    Great timing!! I have been working on these for the last week, and though the swirls are working out ok, I would really appreciate another video on piercing the holes. My son visited and saw a set I had done for myself, a wire wrapped pendant and earrings. He asked if I could make an even larger pendant half red and half black. Half & half, sure, but he wanted it to be about 2 1/2" across, flat with a pierce through top to bottom for a goth wire wrap that only goes half way around. This has presented a whole new challenge for me! That's a long hole to pierce!!!!! I've tried several that have been wasted, next I'm trying a top and bottom layer with the wire sandwiched between. Any other ideas? Anyone? I'm also having trouble getting it pressed flat smoothly.

I do have a question about seeing lentil beads that have cane slices on them, but they aren't swirled and for the life of me I can't figure out how to apply the slices seamlessly without losing the lovely lentil shape.

    • @PolymerClayTutor
      @PolymerClayTutor  6 лет назад +1

      Try popping them in the fridge or freezer for a litte bit before adding the slices. That should help keep the bead from getting squished while you're handling it. Good luck!

    Cool video. This is a bit hard to master but it is definitely addictive. I have my own bowl of them as well. :P I freaked the first time one I was making went oval but soon realized I could fix them. Drilling a perfect through and through hole from top to bottom is still hard for me though. There are other ways though. I even have seen someone using a ... argh I can't stand it when I can't think of the name... *laughs* oh I remember now... an eyelet going from front to back to be the bead hole. It looked pretty cool.
    Something else I love to do with these is to let them rest a while after I make them then cut them in half or in slices so I can get neat patterns from the inside to use to cover scrap clay and make regular beads from.
