Hey John, Thanks for the heads-up. Am curious, have you had any experience with Crayola Model Magic modeling plastic clay ? That was all I could find at the local art/handicraft shops. Am getting closer to having a work area set up to start on the restoration of my TD 160 Mk II, would rather find out now if I got the wrong stuff, than after I've done packed it.
Hope all is well with you.
Nope - haven't tried the Crayola stuff 'cause I think it's only bright pastel colors I've seen (natch - it's Crayola

). Just make sure it's NON-HARDENING modeling clay...there are many types out there that harden quite purposely so.
At least it's probably safe if targeted to kids (no large company that sells to kids wants to incur undue liabilities in this litigious society we live in today). So if the colors don't make you want to wretch

go for it.
I'm a modeling clay snob I guess....I only use solid color - normally tan or grey. I bought black twice and it stained my fingers and was hard to remove.
The EZ Shape stuff is pretty good...I've probably used it more than any other (as Plast-i-Clay is hard to find). But, overall, it's the Plast-i-Clay that goes on the easiest and is less than half the cost of EZ SHape I've found in the stores. I think I've most often paid $4.00 for it versus $1.73 or whatever.
As you normally don't need more than 8lbs in any deck...it's not like my post and coupon to allartsupplies. com will save you a fortune....just a little if you need to do a TT from scratch.
Yup - all good, you too I hope? Ciao, John
