jennisculpts Posted May 18, 2010 Report Share Posted May 18, 2010 Question- What do ya'll reccommend wire wise to use in the clay forms to help the tensile strength of the wet clay when freeforming clay figures of heights around 10-16 inches. I do figures in motion or at the very least standing on their on two feet. Because of the nature of the figures they are so fragile until after 2nd firing. I am wondering if there is a method out there someone might share to remedy my problem with snapped off body parts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephen Robison Posted May 18, 2010 Report Share Posted May 18, 2010 Hit the hardware store and buy some 5 gauge or thicker aluminum wire and try it. I have always been a fan of free stuff so coat hangers bunched up into an interior armature is maybe the direction I would go for something that small.
