She is a Canadian Distributor that ships worldwide. A direct link to Diane&#8217;s Etsy Shop is right below today&#8217;s video on this page.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">This tool was designed to slice polymer clay canes whether they are small or large, square, round or pretty much any shape and size you would make.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">In the video, I show you how the slicer works.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">The LC Slicer ships unassembled. It took me about an hour to put it all together.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">The replaceable blade is incredibly sharp and stiff, and it cuts through even large older canes with ease.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Then moving bottom plate advances the cane forward in micro increments for paper thin or very thick, and perfectly even slices.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">One improvement I would like to see is a quick release for the screw in the base, so that you could adjust the plate back and forth quicker, depending on the length of your cane.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">The first slice is never perfect because you have to square up the cane first.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">This machine is not cheap&#8230; like a top of the line Cadillac or Mercedes&#8230; but it is so beautifully made and the slices are so perfect that it is worth every penny.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">It sliced through my large Christmas Sweater Cane with ease&#8230; a cane that was near impossible to (nicely) cut by hand.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">This tool will not be in everybody&#8217;s price range, but if you work with polymer clay professionally or just really love having the best tools&#8230; it is a beautiful machine and you will want to check it out!<\/span><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><a name=\"video\"><\/a><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/7oOE5s-R0JU?rel=0\" width=\"575\" height=\"323\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Related Resource: <a href=\"http:\/\/tidd.ly\/613e1dd7\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"external external_icon\">Diane Bruce of VanIslandJewels on Etsy<\/a><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Related Video: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.beadsandbeading.com\/blog\/?p=7620#video\">Polymer Clay Tribal Cane Design<\/a><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Related Video: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.beadsandbeading.com\/blog\/?p=19237#video\">Christmas Sweater Cane Polymer Clay Tutorial<\/a><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Related Video: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.beadsandbeading.com\/blog\/?p=19500#video\">Review of the Lucy Clay CzeXtruder<\/a><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Related Video: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.beadsandbeading.com\/blog\/?p=19458#video\">Lucy Clay Bead Baking Rack Demo<\/a><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span style=\"color: #993300;\">Do you have any suggestions for videos on tips, techniques or products you would like to learn more about?
