Review on AMACO AMA48653D Mexican Pottery Self Hardening by Amanda Castillo

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Fragile - handle with care.

I didn't expect the first piece I made to fall apart into about six pieces when I experimentally squeezed it with one hand to test its strength. It wasn't that hard to push. Also, I didn't interpret "not waterproof" to mean that if you touch a dry piece with a wet finger, your finger stays with clay on it, so that was a bit of a surprise. On the other hand, if you don't like a piece after it's dried, you can just toss it in a bowl of water and start over once it's dissolved. Nevertheless, I really enjoy working with him. Also, I really want to save up for a stove.

Pros
  • Pretty impressive
Cons
  • boring packaging
