The heater should thaw your clay. I love the food mill/meat grinder =
thought, because the freezing does push the water out. If you cannot =
grind , then place your clay in a big basin or tub--like a [clean] kitty =
litter pan, and break it up as best you can. The frost probably broke it =
already. Let it thaw in pieces....it should be easier to wedge if it =
thaws like that....

Hurrah, hurray, Hallelujah and blessings to the one who refused to =
suggest where to get barium. Thank goodness that some are getting extra =
careful. Or, to my mind, sensible.

As to a lead glaze..same. Even if someone were on a desert island and =
planning to use all the pots himself, I would not help one whit.
