Checked the clay this morning & it was still not set. Read the directions, finally, & it has to be baked. SMH Having a blonde moment! So she got baked at 265° for 15 mins, cooled & placed the bud vial in her arms - that moved outward once heated up. SMH Don't have it in me to reheat the oven today

Lower wing front and ankle/leg repair. Today was "almost cured clay" blend day. Smoothed right out - couldn't be more pleased. Wing front and back turned out well, too. Pleasantly surprised at how the new grooves in the pattern look. Sometimes I impress myself.
