Hi Everyone -

Recently - in the past month or so - I read in a posting on Clayart
something to the effect of "I use Standard body # Something-or-Other,
which does fine in raku, at cone 6, and at cone 10." I have looked for
that posting in the archives to no avail (the word "standard" appears in
quite a few postings due to its use in describing the time zone -
Eastern Standard Time).

Does anyone know what Standard clay body this is, or, can anyone suggest
a claybody that would do well in raku, at cone 6 oxidation, and in cone
10 reduction, and, would be an appropriate claybody for students?

Thanks,
Jonathan in DC, from whence Hillary has moved.
