![]() ![]() The almost 240-year-old automaton, which looks simply like a doll holding a quill and. One of these, which he created in the 1770’s, is know simply as The Writer. Pierre Jaquet-Droz, a famous Swiss watchmaker, created three automatons in his life. The watchmaker was indeed a mechanical genius who produced the future in his own time. An automaton is a self-acting robot which behaves in a repetitive or predetermined fashion. This perfectly working example of a programmable robot shows us that Jaquet-Droz, was far ahead of his time. ![]() The letters and words would be preset and could be easily rearranged, meaning The Writer could write virtually anything within a 40 character limit. What makes this an ancestor to modern computers is the fact that it was programmable. The watchmaker made two other automatons, The Musician and The Draughtsman, which can be seen at the Art and History Museum in Neuchatel, Switzerland along with The Writer. As well as writing, the doll is able to control the pressure of the quill on the paper while writing and the eyes follow the writing on the paper as if it is actually following what it is writing. The doll can write any word or sentence up to 40 characters in length. Jaquet-Droz built the automaton with the help of his son and used techniques such as homeostasis and miniaturization to complete the robot. Jaquet-Droz is a well known automaton builder and The Writer is considered his masterpiece. Smaller devices make for less invasive procedural techniques and, therefore, less trauma during surgeries and other minor procedures. The Writer is made from around 6000 parts, which have been miniaturized and designed to fit into the body of the doll. This fact is as amazing as the automaton itself, due to the complexity of it. The almost 240-year-old automaton, which looks simply like a doll holding a quill and sitting on a pedestal, still works perfectly to this day. ![]() An automaton is a self-acting robot which behaves in a repetitive or predetermined fashion.

Turning them into collages might have also been an issue. I think I need to invest in a good camera with lenses that are specifically made for photographing small things. Sorry about the photo blurryness - my phone doesn't take great photos to begin with, but I often find it extra difficult to get detailed pictures of such tiny sculpts. I do often mix my own colors, but sometimes it's just faster and easier to grab a different brand if there's a particular color/shade I like. I definitely have a lot to learn on the mold-making front though because my first mold was a complete failure. Thankfully it was easy to repair, and I think that since my sculpts have adapted over the past year and a half to be less weak in those areas, I think one of my newer sculpts may fare better as a mold. The only breakage I've had was when I tried to make my first 3D silicone mold with a 2019 character, which broke the character in several weak spots when I tried to pull it out of the mold. ![]() However, I've had no problems with breakages despite accidentally dropping my pieces on the floor many times (and I've had no customers reaching out to mention breakages either, although if it does happen, I will be offering free repairs so that I can learn about any weak spots and adapt accordingly). As far as regular being brittle in thin or projecting areas, yes that's definitely true, and I've certainly had to adapt to that over time. I probably wouldn't recommend it to others because it can definitely be a pain to work with, but I like it better than other brands and my techniques have adapted to have less trouble with its softness over time. I know others hate how tacky the regular can be, but I personally love its texture. I really enjoy how soft and pliable the regular is straight out of the packaging. I loathe how brittle and crumbly it is straight out of the packaging, and how much conditioning it requires to be workable. Yeah, I know the black label is supposed to be higher quality than the original which is why I wanted to give it a try, but in my opinion it is the worst polymer clay I've ever used. One suggestion could be to use mica powder as the gold trim on the base of one of the figures rather than using a marker (the line might have been a bit more even, and some markers/paint aren't safe for direct contact with polymer clay over time). (The last time that happened, the poster had zoomed or something when taking the pic which resulted in blurriness.) Oh, but the link inside your comment did work so can see them a little better! They look good in place. But I can't see in detail because clicking on the pics brings up images that are blurry, for me anyway. The sculpts look cute and nicely sculpted. Occasionally use a little bit of something else if I want a specific color that Craftsmart doesn’t have.ĭo you ever mix up your own colors instead? And the often-firmer brands/lines of polymer clay will have other advantages as well. What is it that you find terrible about Craftsmart Premium? It will be firmer from the package than regular Craftsmart but that's easily taken care of with good conditioning. Which other brands/lines of polymer clay have you tried? Both are the Michaels brand of polymer clay. Regular Craftsmart is also one of the brands/lines of polymer clay that'll be brittle after baking in any thin and/or projecting areas (like Sculpey III, Bakeshop, no-name brands, and a few others). Interesting that you say that because regular Craftsmart (red label) is considered lower quality than Craftsmart Premium (black label), and is less expensive than the Premium version. Pretty much all of my sculpts are made using Craftsmart (white label because black label is terrible) ![]() |
