Tom and Others,
I'm currently paying .18/lb. for moist, bagged stoneware and earthenware =
(red or
white) in 1,000 lb. quantities. Less quantities are .015 to .02 higher per
pound. This includes the gamut of Laguna clays my supplier carries as well =
as
the clays he mixes and pugs from his own recipes...which is what I primarily
use. This price has increased a penny a pound in the last two years. =
Porcelain
runs about .21 or .22/lb. (Not sure of this...I don't use much porcelain, =
but
have picked up for others.) I always pick up my own, so I can't tell you
anything about freight.
I have discussed having him custom mix from my own recipe. He estimated the
prices to be about the same for any stoneware or earthenware mix. Custom =
mixing
is available from him in a minimum quantity of 2,000 lb.
