Has anyone put their paperclay through their pugmill? I wondered if it was
pugged several times would it give it a final thorough mixing?

Bobbi,
I tried paperclay in a mixer/pugmill. I just put in the clay scraps, slop,
etc., and a big double handful of shredded paper. Mixed for about an hour, I
think, then pugged. It worked just fine, but I don't like throwing paper
clay. Well, more to the point, throwing it isn't a problem, but trimming and
carving it is a royal pain. Dulls and clogs up your tools.
