Conditioning without a Pasta Machine

Hi all... How are you doing?
What's upto your creations?

Oh don't have a pasta machine, your fist pains...
Worry not... I have cool idea.. !! Happy ?

Conditioning is the process of making clay pliable and ready to create. Unless you condition nicely your product's strength n durability affected to a great extend. It may break or crumble even if you cured properly.

A tip for today :

      As you know pasta machine helps to condition easily without much our physical effort. But for the beginners they may hesitate to invest more for their clay crafts. So here I tell you how do it bit quickly..

                                                          *********

Take the amount of clay to be conditioned single color (or more colors if you want another color)

Chop them into tiny bits.

Gather all the bits n press together with your hands.

Roll with your non sticky roller. ( a branded acrylic roller preffered )

Fold or gather the clay , roll it again for 5-10 times or until they well incorporated.

Make a long log , fold it to half and then twist it as seen in the picture below

Repeat until smooth n sculptable.

Try this....

It may not be an evolutionary invention. But my simple and humble trick I thought to share with you as it really help you well...
