- beginning weights in grams were recorded
- the lines and weights were measured & recorded when bone dry
- The samples were fired to Cone 04
- lines and weights were measured & recorded again
- The flat tiles were then soaked in hot water for 1 1/2 hours, then weighed again
- Math magic was then done to calculate the average shrinkage wet-dry and average shrinkage overall for both flat and thrown tests, and the average water absorption was calculated based on the flat bars.
- We also figured the "LOI" (Loss on Ignition) by computing the fired weight against the bone dry weight. This tells us what percent of organics burn off in the firing.
Flint Hills clays have been evaluated by a nationally certified toxicologist, and have been found to be in compliance with ASTM C-1023 and D-4236, and to not contain any material in sufficient quantity to be toxic or to constitute a chronic health hazard when used responsibly.

Inventory/Shipping Notes: Made in our warehouse! If stock is lower than your needs, we can still likely have it in under a day!
It can be very expensive to ship just a couple of boxes of clay. UPS and FedEx charge a LOT for a 50# box of clay. It's almost always more than the cost of the clay, and can be more $50 per box. The cost per pound of clay goes down when you ship 500# or more via a freight company. If you can order with a friend or several friends (or art teacher where schools are concerned) you can both save quite a bit of money. Feel free to get in touch with us and let us know you are looking to share shipping costs!
