I use a blender, then squeeze the water out. I need a finer clay, so, I crumble it up, let it thoroughly dry, then use a coffee grinder. This makes a very fine fuzz. I store it dry to avoid mildew. When I need a batch, I mix water and glue with it. This is excellent for miniature house building (bricks, stones, stucco, etc.). Enjoyed your video. Michael

Glad you enjoyed the video. Those are so good tips. May need to get a coffee grinder to give it a try. In the past we I need a finer clay I use a recipe that uses toilet paper.

I have greatly simplified my process. I found that egg carton can be ground dry in a coffee grinder. It makes a very fine fuzz that can be mixed with water and glue. No need for a blender. The clay dries very hard. Michael
