Been working hard since 01.15.07 on slabs in both porcelain and bone china. Finally can make an incredible slab from 1 mm thick – up to 4mm. One set, of slabs - 01.18.30 are a rolled as a club sandwiched. One piece of the least expensive muslin, thinnest interface then the bone china clay – with a leading wedge laid closet to the roller – a sheet of interface and then muslin, all on a piece of MDF. Sort of a stone soup formula. Then I remove the fabric on the top surfaces – flip it onto a kiln shelf – remove the other layers of fabric – for a naked clay slab as a canvas for ideas.

My muscles started to cry out on the 18th. Lifting kiln shelves above my head to store in the drying rack maybe the cause, but maybe it was the two hours of dancing done the night before!
