  • Question
    Can I make these out of any other materials, such as clay, stone, or wood?
    Community Answer
    The clay pieces would have to be glazed, but you can definitely carve them out of wood. You'd need special equipment if you wanted to carve them out of stone.

  • Question
    What types of glue do I use for this project?
    Community Answer
    Using a heavy wood glue would be the best, but really any type of glue other than glue sticks should work.
