great clay hope my tips below help!
I have been using this clay to craft miniatures and other types of sculptures. This clay when cured properly is very flexible without cracking and is great for many different uses. My clay arrived fast and was in great condition not old or dry.TIPS FOR THOSE WITH ISSUESFor those state clay is hard to knead:Clay can be more difficult to work with in colder weather. The colder the harder the clay will get & the warmer it is the easier it is to work with. You can warm it in your hand, a cup of hot water (not boiled) or place it on a heating pad so it will soften up.If clay is dry:mix it with translucent liquid sculpey and if you dont have any of that a little bit of baby oil will work just do not use to much as it will break down the clay. I also use oil to smooth my sculptures and remove finger prints.Clay cracks after baking:if your clay is not flexible and easily breaks after baking you are not curing it properly. Your clay should be baked at 275F your oven may be set on this temperature but oven thermometers read incorrectly in a lot of cases. Buy a over thermometer to get a more accurate reading on your temp. Your clay should be baked at least an hour or more depending on how thick it is. It can be baked multiple times at this temperature and will not burn. I know the package states 30 minutes but I have been working with this clay for years the longer it is baked (at the correct temp) the stronger it will be.Your clay no matter how thin when cured correctly should bend without breaking (unless a lot of force is used on thicker pieces)Test baking once you have got the temperature on your oven correct:Roll out your clay and cut 6 pieces of 1 inch long by 1/2 inch wide slices. They should be as thick as a nickle. Number them 1-6 and then stick them all in the oven at the same time, set your timer for an hour. Remove one from the oven every 10 minutes. so you will have 1 piece baked for 10 minutes, 20 minutes, 30 minutes etc...when you have baked the last piece for an hour let them cool off. Then do a bend test with each one. Likely what will happen those pieces baked for 10-30 minutes will break when bending and those baked longer wont. This will allow you to see if your oven is getting hot enough and what amount of time will cure your clay best.I have attached some pictures of my correctly cured clay being bent. This is how you will know it is cooked correctly. When you are working with your sculptures you can put test clay strips in with it and take them out & do a bend test that way you will be able to gauge if your project is also being baked correctly. Hope these tips help!

TIPS FOR THOSE WITH ISSUES
For those state clay is hard to knead:
Clay can be more difficult to work with in colder weather. The colder the harder the clay will get & the warmer it is the easier it is to work with. You can warm it in your hand, a cup of hot water (not boiled) or place it on a heating pad so it will soften up.
If clay is dry:
mix it with translucent liquid sculpey and if you dont have any of that a little bit of baby oil will work just do not use to much as it will break down the clay. I also use oil to smooth my sculptures and remove finger prints.
Clay cracks after baking:
if your clay is not flexible and easily breaks after baking you are not curing it properly. Your clay should be baked at 275F your oven may be set on this temperature but oven thermometers read incorrectly in a lot of cases. Buy a over thermometer to get a more accurate reading on your temp. Your clay should be baked at least an hour or more depending on how thick it is. It can be baked multiple times at this temperature and will not burn. I know the package states 30 minutes but I have been working with this clay for years the longer it is baked (at the correct temp) the stronger it will be.
Your clay no matter how thin when cured correctly should bend without breaking (unless a lot of force is used on thicker pieces)
Test baking once you have got the temperature on your oven correct:
Roll out your clay and cut 6 pieces of 1 inch long by 1/2 inch wide slices. They should be as thick as a nickle. Number them 1-6 and then stick them all in the oven at the same time, set your timer for an hour. Remove one from the oven every 10 minutes. so you will have 1 piece baked for 10 minutes, 20 minutes, 30 minutes etc...
