I think it's about time we make our own Ceramics right here in the good old USA. Hey if the Germans can do it why can't we?

I second that motion!

I think one of the reasons that these foreign ceramics are so crazy expensive is because of the shipping costs to get them here since they are heavy.

Someone start making them here and cost is bound to go down due to a competitive advantage of not having to ship overseas.

. I tested my samples for over a year before I felt good about using it. Researched it for a year as well. Not all clay is created equal.

What clay did you go with?

Anything special about the firing process?
