I search this video Just to find out the correct pronunciation but it was a very useful video to watch I’m glad I took the time to very informative and straight to the point
Thank you Lucy for the instruction. Making the ‘T’ shape was a mystery🤣Problem solved.🔥 Could watch your videos all day.
I would be hesitant with some gems (amber opal, pearl, coral anything that is porous) going into an acetone bath. Have you had any bad experiences with softer gems and acetone Lucy?
Mystery solved, brilliant!! Thank you!
I'm not in the jewellry trade but I've had some thermoplastic in my cupboard at work for years and never used it and certainly never thought to use it to hold a small object to work on it easier. I wish I had thought of this 30 yrs ago.
Thank you Lucy, excellent video!
Love your videos! Thank you 🙏🏼 🥰💗
Always learn something new
Great tips! Love the sonic one! xo
Thank you for your demonstration. For those who are curious, Rio Grande JETT Basic thermoplastic contains 2-Oxepanone, polymer with 1,4-butanediol. These are the same ingredients as in Aquaplast. However, rather than in coming in the form of pellets as with JETT Basic, Aquaplast comes in the form of a thermoplastic sheet. Aquaplast is then cut into smaller pieces which are soften by heat and shaped into medical splints which are used for physical therapy.
Amazing thank you so much ❤️
Thank you , you and your videos are awesome , hoping to enroll in some of your online classes soon ✌🏻👍🏻
Thanks for that nice clear explanation!
Thank you Danielle! Glad you're enjoying this.
Thanks so much for these instructions! I've used thermoplastic a couple of times before but was frustrated by how it turned out. I'm going to use your tips!
Great video! Those little beads get everywhere too 🤣
Lobe your videos. Thank you!😍💗
Thank you so much lovely 🥰
NICE
What about setting cement u soften with a blow torch that’s a different material? I need a year in kuala lumpa lol 😆 it’s so much to learn thank god for these videos on RUclips I’m eternally grateful
You mean shellac? I like it but it burns so bad I’d you get it on your skin - blisters within blisters within blisters , ask me how I know 🤣😭
You are too awesome
Great video but I’m wondering if the acetone could be harmful towards certain gemstones?
In always worried about putting my set cabochons in water to take it out of thermoplastic … won’t I potentially get water under the stone?
Once the thermoplastic is completely hard and in a block how would you then soften it enough to work with it again?? I find it difficult trying to heat it through with the boiled water. Maybe I should have certain shapes for certain shapes projects???
Hot glue sticks might do the job. They can be found with different melting points.
Acetone is nasty!
