I JUST got my melting pot, and haven't been able to use it!!! No UTEE YET! I passed on getting UTEE, coz I was in need of an heat tool... The only one my michales had was one by Marvy... used it twice and it died! Wish they had the Ranger heat tool at my local M's!!
I'm so upset :( I bought the melting pot but it had a US plug and my husband tried to adapt it to ours but it didn't work. So I bit the bullet and bought another, bought a US adaptor for our Australian power outlets, but unfortunately I melted one lot of UTEE once and poured into the moulds but as soon as I did that it worked no longer. I don't know of any other type of melting pot here in Australia and am sooooo soooooo jealous. A waste of money and still no better off *sigh*
i love my melting pot and was very lucky to do a class with Suze feb this year i have a little clip of the day with Suze singing i also uploaded a tutorial on making fine porcelain flowers using the melting pot pls check them out hugs jayne xxxx
@MizCoffeMug Using Ultra Thick Embossing Enamel in the Melting Pot versus using embossing inks, powders and the heat gun are separate things. When you melt UTEE in the pot, you can pour it into molds, pour it onto a stamp, pour it out and stamp into it, among other things, to create 3D pieces of art. When you use embossing powder and ink, you use the ink to stamp an image or perhaps give an embellishment a glazed coating. Hope that explains the difference for you.
so this tool kinda kills the purpose of having embossing inks and re-fillers and the main use of the heat gun ? I mean on the basis of whole service coverage .. hmm
I am gonna have to get those dyes I didn't even know they were available. I purchased the melting pot about fine months ago and I have only used it once. :) I have just been extremely busy with my new business that I haven't had a whole lot of time to play with my toys. :) Thanks for sharing the great information for us! Keep it coming!
well look at that I learned something new! I never thought about using this has an oven for oven baked clay! trying it out now!

What's wrong with letting the UTEE cool in the melting pot and then using the spatula to lift up the cooled UTEE? It is teflon coated, correct?

I would love to see how to do the polymer clay in this

@kahether The pan is teflon coated, but the utee is sometimes difficult to remove that way.
