thats one of those I dropped into the mix. I retrieved it quickly. The other larger one came out too light. Will retire. I need better tongs.If you get those designed ones made, Ill take a pair. I don't like the scratches mine are making. -

paper clay home made mixer
Images added to a gallery album owned by Marcia Selsor in Browse Member Galleries
this tools are used for making paper clay from trimming scrap clay. The clay trimmings are dried and stored until ready to mix. They are slaked in water overnight. I fill the mixer about 1/2 way. The dried paper pulp balls are soaked overnight, and added to the solution. The mix is dried onto plaster slabs and used or dried until needed. Drying the slabs prevents it from molding. -

The pulp is drain on fiberglass window screen stretched onto a frame.These balls can be dried out and saved until needed. -
