: Does it have to be glassed? How about applying some Rot Doctor type Cleat
: Penetrating Epoxy (CPE)? Or regular epoxy cut with acetone? Glassing small
: fittings would be a pain, but dipping them in a cup of goop would be
: simple :-)

I agree, but for toggles I think I would want to wrap the clay around a strip of wood or plastic before it gets cooked to make sure it wouldn't break in half :( Other bits/pieces like recessed fittings could probably just be epoxied/varnished. We should know by this weekend if any of this crap is worth a damn. It's fun tryin'. I'll let you know.

More ideas???
