    having created many metal clay ceramics..I have many years skill as
    a goldsmith and can assure you that it cannot be forged, annealed,
    rolled well, or any other traditional skill involved in making
    precious metal jewlery Not to metnion the cost, MLM scheme, pyramid
    scheme and con game that PMC certification is while Art Clay is not
    as covertly devious- both materials, I suspect the entire meta clay
    trip will be a fad that will just go away in a few years after the
    market becomes saturated with PMC and art clay objects, that if were
    as you say, would be being bought up for little money and remelted,
    but again, that is not possible..
