My puny little brain is already struggling with how to make the bot-arms movement that my imagination sees for this project. But that's part of the fun...solving the puzzle.<br /><br />And Tim...sorry, I don't have a cheap source for the Sculpey. However, if you have a craft store (like "Michael's") in your area, sometimes I've gotten 40% off coupons in our local paper. That helps some when I purchase a pound of Sculpey. Be aware, though...Sculpey is not as durable as "green stuff", so choose wisely about the functionality of your piece. If it's going to be handled a lot, it can break. I've also used epoxy plumbers putty sometimes, but you have to work quickly. Hope that helps.Warrennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-830906409506903322.post-20409237539302950822010-08-12T07:26:49.003-05:002010-08-12T07:26:49.003-05:00I love steampunk, so I can't wait to see this ...I love steampunk, so I can't wait to see this project be built! <br /><br />Is there a good place to buy large amounts of sculpy for not art store prices? I've only used it a little but it seems like a cheaper alternative to the green and brown stuff gamers use when doing a large bulky project.Timnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-830906409506903322.post-17210005426638660242010-08-10T20:22:40.856-05:002010-08-10T20:22:40.856-05:00Oh cool!
