I ordered a cupturner needle felting machine off of Etsy. I’m hoping this machine helps shorten my needle felting hours. I am not able to felt as much as I used to because I have developed carpal tunnel syndrome in my right arm. Let’s try this thing out! #fiberart #needlefelting #felting #feltingmachine

      This clay is 100% legit. If your clay is cured properly it shouldn’t crack. Mine only cracked here because my clay layer was way too thin over the wire. This clay is extremely durable and I’ve been using it solely for the last 4 years now. You do need to bake this in a normal kitchen oven, not a toaster oven as toaster oven temps vary too much while baking and will not cure the clay properly.

    Hey Katie. I'm not sure if you will see this or not but I JUST bought the same gun. Is there supposed to be a screw you have to tighten so the needle doesn't fall out? Mine didn't come with directions and what I saw online looked like it was supposed to but I don't have a screw...it just has a hole so I'm thinking it's missing. Trying to find someone who has the same machine for clarity.

    • @katelynnm5686
      @katelynnm5686 7 місяців тому

      Hello, there is a little plastic thing that slides back and forth over the area the needle goes into. You slide it forward to cover the end of the needle so it doesn’t fall out. The opposite end of the little needle holder has a screw that could possibly come loose. You have to slide the plastic piece further past where the needle is held in so see the screw. I hope that helps. It’s a bit hard to explain over text.

    • @aprice154

      Yes! Mine appears to definitely be missing the screw opposite the needle holder. It's just an open gold hole. Hmm. Will have to check the hardware store to see if I can find a screw that fits. I don't want to return it just for that. How are you liking yours so far?

It’s taken me a bit to figure out how to make it work for what I do but I use it a lot now. You can’t do super detailed stuff with it but the machine helps speed up the monotonous part of adding colors to core wool and trying to firm up the form. I only ever use the fine needle with it. The heavier gauge needles are harder to pierce into the wool with as it’s felting quickly.

      @@kaylahall1219 yes, with 2D felting you do. Not with 3d felting. Many times for 3d felting you’re wanting to stab from surface to center. When using the felting machine the machine almost “kicks back” when trying felt deeper. There’s a lot more resistance and I was a little worried about breaking a needle.

    Just an aside, but when toy manufacturers are making bendy toys, there are included port holes on the lateral edges of the bendy segment. This improves flexibility by allowing material room to gap or bunch as needed. Another technique would be to sculpt segments individually with overlaps to hide the gaps along the wire, again to allow better range of motion without ripping the cover material.

      Is the clay you bought stuff you bake? There’s another brand out there by the same name but it’s air dry clay and definitely not the same thing. If it was polymer clay then it sounds like it did not cure properly. Cosclay needs to be baked in a normal home oven for the recommended temp and time. It’s suggested to use a separate oven thermometer to make sure your oven bakes at the correct temperature.
