Here's the ASMR edition of this weekend's video. If you'd prefer to watch the narrated version that discusses what's happening at each stage, you can find it here:    • How I Recycle my Stoneware Pottery Reclaim  

Timecodes:
0:00 - Introduction
0:11 - Gathering reclaim
2:24 - Removing excess water
3:21 - Placing reclaim on plaster batts
6:17 - Preparing clay for wedging
7:07 - Wedging
12:22 - Clean up

Plaster Batt Recipe:
8320g Potter's Plaster
2080g Herculite Plaster

(This is per plaster batt, you could make a thinner layer and spread it across two batts but I prefer thicker ones. Additionally, you can place chicken wire into the mould and pour the plaster over to strengthen them. I've always used thicker batts as they tend not to get over saturated too quickly).

Let me know if you've got any questions in the comments below and as always, thanks for watching.
