Dear Clyde:

In regard to nylon we always use it in sculpture clays and often a student
might not want a large amount. I have suggested nylon rope be purchased and
cut into 1/2 inch lengths and separated into fibers. This might be an option.

Good luck,

a while and it is a much needed ingrediant in my mush consistacy jigger
clay.

it!!!!!
Anyone know where I can.
