and more about a low-temp formable plastic used for fixturing

Eric,
That sounds great. I have used a cheap-o version sold in craft stores
for kid-type jewelry, IIRC. It comes in strips maybe 1"x6"x1/8" for a
few bucks. Rather weak and brittle but strong enough to hold an oddball
shape and bore out a hole. Definitely disposable.

Your stuff sounds better.

I wonder how different it can be? The stuff I have is not real
brittle. In fact, it bends pretty far before it breaks. But it will
break. I'm gonna head down to the local crafts store and see if they
have any and how well it compares to mine. Might be the same stuff.
