describe the pmc process (8 steps)
- model the FIMO
- manafacture the pmc
- let the pmc dry (24hrs)
- create the hole for the chain to pass through
- sand the pmc
- heat the pmc to create the silver
- use a burnishing tool wire brush and a electromagnetic polisher to make the pmc shinny
- attatch a jump ring to the pmc project chain
why do we model with fimo before using pmc?
It does not matter if you mess up your design or if you only like it on paper and not in real life and you can practice making the design multiple times as it is much cheaper than pmc

Drill bit
what tool is used to heat the pmc?
a brazing hearth
