I’m making a custom clay body for my upcoming workshop using #WildClay I collected just south of where I live, and combining it with a midrange commercial clay to give it the durability it lacks on its own. The sample on the right was fired to over 2100°F, just under its melting point, and is still fragile and easily broken. The color transformation is lovely, though. I’m excited to give workshop participants a unique opportunity to work with local clay.
@potterybyosa I still smile every time I see #WildClay now. You have no idea how healing that convo was for me. 🥰
@FinalGirl Did you ever receive the rocket kiln diagrams and firing schedules I sent you? I never did get a response but the email didn’t bounce.
@potterybyosa I thought I responded to that!! I’m so sorry, I did get them. I thought we talked about it. Apologies.
