Mostly for their lack of shelf life. And the mess, while manageable, I would not miss it were it to go away.

I've never been trusting enough of acrylics to make the switch. I started life as a fine artist and began truly painting with acrylics, then moved to oils forever. Acrylics dry to a tone that is lighter than wet and were therefore... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (AModelMan) http://atomiccity.yuku.com/topic/469 Tue, 06 Nov 2007 10:25:11 GMT http://atomiccity.yuku.com/topic/471/t/Electronics-LEDs.html

Photo keychains! I just saw them for the first time last week in a couple of Sunday circulars for about $10-$20 and you can set them for a slideshow with something like 10 or 20 photos.

This is not a definitive treatment of this vast subject. Chances are that we all know a little and can together create a great thread out of this -maybe Photography could have its own forum! Please help me out with suggestions and critiques

Before this can be used, a mold has to be made from the wax part. The wax isn't very strong and would make a lousy material for a tooling pattern, anyway!
