One of the coolest gifts I ever got was a Christmas ornament that was none other than Trogdor the Burninator, complete with a little Santa hat. Unfortunately, he broke sometimes during the process of one of my moves. I wish I had taken a picture of him when he was whole. Sigh. One of the zillions of crafts that I want to do is to start using clay myself. I went looking through Flickr for some fun ideas of geeky crafts that you can do with Sculpey® clay (one of the popular brands available) and found these lovely examples: This robot is simple but fun. I can see myself easily being able to make something like this at least. by Jeff Robbins
