What's the Best Hardening Clay for Garden Gnomes?




I’ve been into molding with clay for a while now and have been fairly successful using never-hardening clay, just to train myself to sculpt. However, I’ve begun following my fascination with garden gnomes. I’m aware that most gnomes are made of carved concrete and mostly hard plastic, but I’d rather work with clay. What type of clay would be the best to use? Some sort of clay that I can bake in my home oven.




How should I fix my patio door?




My patio door is not sealing properly anymore. It is about 12 years old. The door is square but I believe the house has moved some which is causing gaps. What are my options for getting this fixed?

A) Should I replace the whole assy, door and jam included?
B) Should I replace the jam only?
C) Is there a way to take the molding off the jam and re-adjust the door assembly so that it is square again?

Thanks.
This is not a sliding door.
