Hi Lori, I only use low fire 04 clays. You'll learn how much you need to dry them before carving. They carve very well at what is called leather hard. Also if you get a dent you can always fill it and sand it later. Today on my thread I'm posting an example of fixing an air bubble.

I hope you find that there is a lot of fun in carving clay. Remember that an air pocket will make your clay explode in the kiln.

Cheers, Wendy
