Here I take bone dry trimmings from previous slip castings and recycle them back into slip to create more pots. These trimmings all came from slip I use to slip cast pots. So while they are bone dry now they once had water and defloculant in them (Darvan 7). To turn these trimmings back into slip I just add water! These trimmings have large chunks so some mechanical persuasion to break them up, therefore give the slay more surface area to absorb water, helps speed along the process. I use piece of dowel to start, and then my drill mixing attachment. On and off over the course of a day I came out and mixed things up. The slip ended up with a great consistency so all of the existing defloculant from the bone dry clay was doing its job again. If the slip was would have been too thick, I would have added more Darvan 7 to loosen it up. By the end of the day I'd converted the trimming back into useable slip and I could slip cast more pots!
