hardening modeling clay
Is there any trick to making modeling clay harden?

I made a little somthing out of modeling clay (the non drying clay) and i would like it to harden. Is there any way i could do that?

modeling clay isn’t meant to dry. you can make a mold of from the clay out of plaster( 2or 3 part mold) and clear silicone caulk mixed with a little water( water speeds drying.) the silicone goes on first, let itdry,then the plaster goes on over that in 2 or 3 pieces that fit together like a puzzle.
