Well, as you can see this what my experiement with Art clay paper type looks like. The two squares were before firing glued together, but this didnt work as i was able to split them with ease using a sharp blade. I also tried to coil a strip around a skewer to see how it went. The paper tears easily i found. But it did fire using a torch, but i was very careful. The biggest issue i see with this brand of paper type is strength, there isnt any!. I doubt this would change even if layered a few times. So i shall try to find out about PMC sheet type and whether it is thicker. On a brighter note, i did have some lump form so was able to make a start on the earrings for the 'IMPERFECT' collection. Although they do need a lot of clean up pre firing,and i need to decide on a way to secure an earwire to them, but i think i may well just craft a small 'block' to be pasted onto the back of each top square.
