I Hacked the Hack

Yes, I hacked the hack.











Now it fits better in my oven, and I can tent it with foil more easily.  I might try using the bottom half instead.  I'll experiment later.  I watched a good video about keeping the rack pins in position using a product called Sugru.  I recieved a nice comment by someone  to check out this video by Cindy Lietz, The Polymer Clay Tutor.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tX3fQ9bfIZ0&feature=player_embedded
Cindy is demonstrating the product Sugru.  It's a soft putty type silicone substance that air dries, and can be used in extreme temperatures.  76F below zero (or freezing? can't remember) and up to 375F, I think it was.  Anyway, safe for baking polymer clay. Looks like cool stuff!
I'll have to post again when I have my bead rack right and exact...haha.
Here are a few beads that I made tonight.
