Hey FO.

Ive been working with a Clay called Soldate60 mixed with Coffee Grounds Paper Fragments and Sawdust. It's tough to throw, and looses it's "Plastisity" but should have a nice pummicy feel when it's buisqued.

There is a fellow who sells lots of carved volcanic stuff in San Jose. I think it's from Bali. They work in sand stone or the black ignius. He has these large Ka's made that run about 500-600. for a 4 foot tall head, that reasonable.

The guys who make them just use sharpend re-bar.

His warehouse is called Pacific Blue Traders, and it's right bye the sharktank...only a few blocks from "WORKS"

Cheers
