Best Clay for Glass work?
 
What is the preferred Clay to use when filling in the corners (fillet) after you made the wood form? I've used one type of non-water based Clay, but it is very hard/firm and is difficult to extrude through a shape making tool. Looking for some advise from the Fiberglass masters on the site.

Thanks,

Jim

I seem to remember that "Master Stick" mentioned sculpy, but he may have found something he likes better since then. "Big", who did a lot of work with Strick, mentioned it above in his entry.

Just sayin'!
