Where can I buy Mammoth, Elephant, Squirrel, and Baby Squirrel model?
Mammoth, Elephant, Squirrel and Baby Squirrel models are out of production, but you may order LC Machine Elephant 2.0 on Lucy Clay Store.
How much does LC Machine cost?
You may find current prices here on this page or at Lucy Clay Store.
How much does Expedited Shipping of LC Machine cost?
The shipping cost depends on the country and the postal address. Approximate shipping cost within Europe is 40USD, to the USA 120USD, to Australia 150USD. To find the exact shipping price, please add your items to your cart and fill address correctly. You will find the shipping price in the 4th step (the final step before completing the order).
What is the difference between Mammoth and Elephant / Squirrel models?
Firstly, the Mammoth and Squirrel models are out of production. LC Elephant has similar features to LC Mammoth, but it has slightly shorter rollers: LC Mammoth rollers were 25 cm / 9.84″ long, LC Elephant rollers are 20 cm / 7.87″ long.
LC Elephant 2.0 model has a bigger gap between rollers (basic 17mm/0.67″) or (custom 22mm/0.86") than LC Mammoth (12 mm / 0.47″).
How will the LC Machine be packed? Will there be assembly after unboxing?
Our goal is for you to have as little assembly as possible. Currently, we are offering assembled LC Machine. Please watch the unboxing and assembling video.
Can I rotate the Machine using a cordless drill?
You may rotate the LC Machine using a cordless drill at your own risk. The drill shall be connected via a hexagonal adapter (order separately). The LC Machine requires approximately 280 – 350 rpm (Rotations Per Minute). Please check the technical specifications of your drill to make sure that you don’t surpass the maximum rotation speed of 350 rpm. SAFETY FIRST!
What are “cleaner blades”? Will they be included in a package?
Cleaner Blades are long white plastic bars that prevent a sheet of polymer clay from spooling onto the roller.
As you know, a bit of polymer clay is usually left on pasta machine blades, so it is necessary to clean the blades every now and then. Otherwise, those leftovers will stick to the next sheet. You can easily remove and clean the blades of the LC Machine. Please watch the video on how to install the Cleaner Blades.
A pair of Cleaner Blades are included in a package.
When/How to clean the cleaner blades?
During use, clean the cleaner blades from time to time and whenever needed. Please watch the video on how to install the Cleaner Blades.
How will the LC Machine be secured to the work surface?
The base of the LC Machine will be equipped with 4 special strong magnets. You will attach the metal magnet pads to your table with double-sided tape, which is included in the package. Alternatively, you can screw the metal magnet pads to your table.
Once your work is done, you can easily detach your LC Machine from the magnetic pads with one easy movement.
A final option is to place the LC Machine on the edge of the work surface and secure it using C-clamps. C-clamps are sold at hobby stores and hardware stores. They are not included in the package of LC Machine because we don’t want to sell you something you don’t need or already have.
What are the supporting bolts for?
The gap is set by a big knob/wheel located on the backside. Two supporting screws stabilize the roller from moving under the pressure of the clay passing through. Thanks to this you can set up the gap up to 17 mm (or 22mm - custom machine LC Elephant 2.0).
Please watch the video which shows how to turn the knob and supporting wheels.
Is there a warranty on LC Machine?
Lucy Clay offers a 2-year warranty on the Machine bought at Lucy Clay Store and a 1-year warranty on cleaner blades.
How to proceed if my LC Machine was delivered damaged?
