      The epk based clay is grey brown wet, but very white when dry. Less plastic than I expected, more meticulous pinch pots. But doable. Porcelain (ish) clay can be finicky. Wood fire next month

      Which is what clay is designed for.

      You must have hands like leather to throw with the granite chunks. Nice work!

      Excellent. Those panoramic photos, would make good framed wall art for your studio, or home in general.

      Very nice. I was going to ask what kind of clay you were using, but I forgot, you have your own "Brand"...

      Actually this one laguna 900

      One of the few I buy, and performs superb in wood fire plain, and the first high fire shino I tested

      . Yes all those were right it is hard work making clay.

      I have no doubt it is. I'll leave the clay mixing up to someone else. Reclaiming is as close as I want to get...

      Almost worth it to drive twelve hours....

      I will say though, the Walker is not de-airing.

      I'll need a truck to move it. Not only is it large but I'm sure it's heavy
