[Nhcoll-l] Mounting clay for museum objects

[Elizabeth Wommack]

Hello everyone,

We recently had a researcher asking for some mounting clay to help support some bird skeleton elements for photography. This is not something I've stocked before in the UWYMV, so I wanted to see if anyone had some brands or types they would recommend?

This wouldn't be used for long-term display purposes, but something that could help hold museum objects up for short-term use. Hopefully something that could be re-used would be great, because there may be some length of time between use of the mounting clay.

cheers,
Beth
