seem to be for beaded stuff. Is that what you are doing or is it a type of glass for stained glass work? Maybe look under the type of hobby?

is a medium that works much like ceramic clay for molded pieces...a liquid that air dries rather than firing. It can also be sculpted before it finishes 'curing'.
I've been trying to find supplies but it looks like I'll have to have friends in Europe see about contacts for me.

I could get interested in something like that. Do you have any links to anything more about it?

That's why I asked. I hoped maybe there would be someone here who knows where to get supplies or works with it.
I've seen some really beautiful sculptures done with it and in Europe some artisans are using it for dolls.
