I've been making slab built bonsai pots for a while. One of my biggest issues is dealing
with warping. I now use Laguna #75. I chose it because of its low water absorption and color.
1. Can anyone suggest a cone 6 clay body with very low warping and less than 2% water absorption?
2. Are there any online articles that explain how to formulate clay bodies to get the properties that I want? I'm happy to buy the raw materials and mix them myself.
3. Could I just add some grog? I've heard that Ron Lang started with 25% grog in his bodies. Will that up water absorption?
