I had no idea the trouble you go through to hold a hand full of ready to use material. Very interesting. As I was digging my lapidary dungeon, I found good thick layers of clay. And I wondered then if it could be used. Much of the Salt Lake Valley where I live is ancient lake bed. Just layers of sand, silt, and clay.
It can be a bit of a process to get that clay into a workable state. Wow, sounds like you have a gold mine around there for clay. You never know that could be some good stuff! Thanks for watching!!
ha ha, I am always using whatever is closest to hand when processing my clay. Im not in an apartment, so I have more options to choose from, tree branch, piece of pipe, brick, rock. The bike lock did look nice and strong, I haven't tried one of those .. yet 😆. It would be a lot easier on the hands than a brick.
