+somegeek Posted August 10, 2010 Share Posted August 10, 2010 Here is some I have found in the wild that Workerofwood makes out of Polymer Clay (FIMO). Which are some of my favorites. Snipped this from another thread. Anyone know if there is a tutorial out there for making the cane for the geocache logo? somegeek Quote Link to comment

+DresselDragons Posted August 10, 2010 Share Posted August 10, 2010 cane? Caning - A two dimensional design is constructed in three dimensions, with the various colored elements of the design extending all the way through the form from the front surface to the back surface. Once the initial form is completed, the form, known as a "cane," can be sliced (with the blade held parallel to the front surface) to produce a number of nearly identical copies of the design Quote Link to comment

+Planet Posted August 10, 2010 Share Posted August 10, 2010 I made some with Sculpy clay a few years back. Here's a photo that shows my 'cane' with some of my teeny tiny GPSrs. There are some more photos here. Check out some of the stuff made by other cachers, it's pretty cool. I didn't use a tutorial, I just had to think it through really carefully. You make the thing big to start, and you have to press on each side over and over to shrink it down. There is a book for this art. The Art Of Sculpy or something like that. I should get back into making some of those. Maybe updated GPSrs, or something. Quote Link to comment
