HELP! Anyone out there using Jasper? I finally got around to trying
the sample, and love it. I have asked for help previously, and was
given Runyan Potter Supply's number, but they do NOT stock it - and
can't remember ever having it. They do, however, have synthetic Albany
(no thanks!).

Please contact me scuttell@odyssey.on.ca with any leads.

Many thanks.

Hi Sam,
Jasper Slip Clay is mined by United Clays, Inc., of Huntingburg,
Indiana. Here's a link to their web
site: http://www.unitedclays.com/index.html
They can probably direct you to a distributor.
