Woah! look at these really cool square slabs made out of clay! This is made with the clay that we made in my last post. 2 of them will be high fired, while the other 2 will be low fired. Two of them are designed to test warpage, while the other 2 are there to test shrinkage and color. The lines in the middle are measured to 10cm, but after drying 3 of them shrinked by .25 inches, while one shrinked by about half an inch. I cant wait to see how it will shrink later on! Again, these were difficult to make because the clay was dry and cracking. I was able to make these fairly well, and they are mostly even. The lines is what we are using for measurement, and each slab is the same thickness.
