Thanks. I've watched a number of your interesting videos to both refresh my knowledge (as I haven't practiced my hobby in many years) and to learn new techniques. I appreciate that you add your narration to the edited video so it is of consistent quality and volume. I wish more video creators would do this.
I would combine all three methods: Put your clay (cut up into small pieces) into a zip lock bag, add dry powdered stain, add water into bag - a little at a time, knead the clay bag until well combined and no more dry powder spots; then take out of bag and wedge. That would avoid all the mess.
My favourite way is to mix dry stain with dry clay and then process. Or a combination of your 1&2, by painting stain &water on slabs, letting it dry a little, then wedging.
Thank you for the super useful video! Can I ask you what I need to google to buy the powder? English is not my first language and I didn’t quite catch that 😅
Hi there, I use ceramic stains. One of the main producers of ceramic stains are Mason stains. But there are other manufacturers. It depends on what country you live in. Try searching ceramic stains or mason stains. Ask a local ceramic or pottery supplier if they sell them.
Hi Lesley, thanks for another interesting video. I was wondering what type of board you wedge on? It doesn't look like plaster, is it some kind of MDF? Thanks.
