Wanaree Tanner demonstrates how to make your own bail drying rack for metal clay, and how to transfer your wet clay onto the rack while minimizing distortion.
SIDE NOTE : I use anodized aluminum knitting needles as my armature, and after drying hundreds of bails since 2008 I've never had a single issue with silver or copper clay reacting. It's important to note that uncoated aluminum is a very different issue, and will react to metal clay. Many thanks to Patricia Bereck Weikersheimer for pointing that out to me! -Wanaree
