Thank you for my membership.
I am a Danish detector archaeologist who wants to recreate some of the things we find with a metal detector. Is there a method to dilute the clay so that you can make a liquid cold cast and then heat it up with a gas burner or perhaps in a microwave kiln?
Thank you for my membership.

Wow, these are amazing and such a unique idea 😍 That’s a really interesting question! Unfortunately, silver clay can’t be diluted into a true liquid casting slip. The clay contains a binder that holds the fine silver particles together, and adding too much water breaks down its strength and causes excessive shrinkage and cracking during drying and firing. If you’re looking to reproduce artefacts with fine detail, here are a few options: • For shallow textures or impressions: Press the original into moulding material (such as silicone putty or two-part mould compound), then press fresh silver clay into the mould. • For more intricate details: You can make a paste by mixing a small amount of silver clay with water to a thick cream consistency. This isn’t suitable for pouring into a mould, but it can be painted into fine textures or used to fill small details. Silver clay paste (or syringe) also works well for this. • Traditional casting Hope this helps ✨

@Liz Brown Brown It can be temperamental 😅. Bronze Clay requires a kiln and is a two stage firing schedule. Lots of strip tests too.

@Sinem Straughan it’s been filmed and just adding the finishing touches. First one up is the cup and saucer ☕️✨

@Angela Marr Broadly No, As long as it’s sealed and stored away from sunlight, heat and moisture. it should be perfectly ready to use after many years, also if it happens to be dried out then it can be reconstituted back into workable clay ✨ Win Win all around. ✨
Kiln cherry finally popped!
Guess who has finally popped their kiln 🍒!!!!! Eeeek. After staring at it for a couple of months I've finally bitten the bullet and gone for it! I'm waiting for everything to cool down before I go near it now. :) so excited but also terrified. I feel like I don't know what I'm doing half the time but so far I've been able to successfully torch fire silver with no mistakes. Now I'm using my kiln to try copper clay!
