Make a tracing paper pattern and build a polymer cane face cane using a “jigsaw puzzle” method.
Researchers at Case Western Reserve University say fixing scratches on cars and furniture may be cheap and easy to do yourself in the not-too-distant future. Together with partners in the USA and Switzerland, they have developed a polymer-based material that can heal itself when placed under ultraviolet light for less than a minute.

Just rolled a lump of conditioned clay.
Awesome video! Thanks for the tutorial!
wow that so cool and sweet!
where do you get the large circular block of clay?
I am definitely diggin’ that…thanks for the tutorial.
Oh my god you are the best!
Cool! I might try that one day! hehe
woah! that looks sweet!
I am very impressed! Brilliant instruction. Thank you.
u made something that big just to make it small……..wow?
That is stunning, thanks for taking the time to share with us. I always wondered how that was done, and your technigue makes me think I could almost do it, a simple one… really simple, haha
Your Awesome! (:
OSM work there!
they really look alike
beautiful! do you sell your beads? i would very much like to have 1 of your picaso inspired faces!
I have read just about every book on making face canes cuz I want to make some so badly. But seeing your video just put it all into perspective. It never crossed my mind to use a drawing and to always be making sure it lines up with the clay. I think I will actually be able to do it now. Great tips!! I cannot thank you enough for making this video.
Ive been working with polymer clay since being introduced to it in my Sophomore year of high school, 7 years ago. I thought I had a pretty good handle in intricate beads, but this technique has to be the single most helpful tip Ive ever seen. This makes all the oh-so detailed beads so much more concievable. Thanks lady
great work.
Wow. I always wondered what the technique was in making things like faces or other pictures. The outcome was really cool, especially with the hair.
YOU. . .ARE. . .AMAZING! <3
Wow, how do you not get lost? It seems so intricate!
wow!! no words!!
At the beginning I had no idea what it was going to be.. but I’m amazed, very cool result!
Awesome work friend! Very impressive. I am mostly a fine artist and I just got a batch of clay tonight. This helps inspire me. Thanks so much for sharing. Don’t forget to add me as a friend too. Looking forward to seeing more! Bigg hugs-Shonna
wow!! excellent!!

Oh that was a great video! I’m just starting up with polymer clay and every bit of info is helpful, so thank you for sharing!
Omg so cool . so much patients !
I agree…a skin, bone, even cellular self healing medium…this could be the game changer.
Man I love technology!
@Ayrinth When you remove the one neuron from between your ears, do you have a empty skull?
OK, now what about something reconstructing it’s self after being damaged? That would probably require replication on a microscopic level similar to organisms.
@D1vinus How does water rearrange itself when you scratch that?
@D1vinus Spray some more on and done! haha
my sister really needs this -.-!
Well done, guys — love the concept.
“The discovery is just scratching the surface of something better”
amazing. id buy it right now
Excellent work. Though I’m sure this will be fairly expensive.. but honestly well worth the price because of the long term use. And they have indeed just scratched the surface. There are incredible applications and possibilities of it. This can go towards even health uses.
@D1vinus When you remove a spoon of water from a glass of water do you leave a dent in it?

What about summer days in the sun? At noon, UV exposure from the sun is very high, especially in certain places in the world. Will the whole car’s polymer coating turn to liquid?
@dreadwagk so where does evolution come from?
i wonder if you could use it on a CD or DVD maybe even HDD then I could play all my old PlayStation games again..oh how I miss those days.
This is cool and all but if the car w/ this material were left outside on a hot day, wouldnt it melt off? idk im not an expert….
@D1vinus Then you’d add new molecules..
iPhone 5?
I want to place an order NOW!
@fsystem No, YOU are the one who is ridiculous. The ability to Regenerate comes from evolution, so no credits to God there.

Would this come to Indian market?
DDTM77 you are ridiculous!
Human skin is reconstructed completely, broken bones come together!

But when you scratch the molecules away from the surface how could they ever rearrange in the right position again, when they’re not there anymore?
Self-healing paint! Now, religion, where’s your answer to that?!
