saggar clay recipe?

updated tue 20 nov 01

 

Jonathan Pennington on mon 19 nov 01


Hi all, I bought some XX saggar clay, Fire clay and Grollegg, because
I wanted to make some saggars. I thought those were the ingredients in
a saggar recipe that I saw on clayart. However, now I can't find the
recipe. Unfortunately, searching the list by using groups.yahoo.com
doesn't always return what I know is there. Is there a better way to
search?

If anyone has a good saggar recipe for earthenware-midfire temps,
would you send it along? I know that at low temps a stoneware clay
would probably do, you don't have to tell me that. I want to use a
saggar clay so that I can make them once and use them until I'm 50.

Thanks, -J

Hey Jonathan,

Go to google.com and type in what you want then clayart. It will turn up
all the threads. Don't forget clayart, it's at the bottom of every post so
it cuts it down just us.

jonathan,

planning to fire in those saggars? :-))
