A few years ago I switched my method of working from wheel throwing to slab building. With this change came the challenge of dealing with cracks in my seams. My mentor Birdie Boone suggested I try switching from using slip with a little vinegar to using "Magic Water." And it made a HUGE difference!
So today I thought I would share an excerpt from Amy Brummond's Workshop from Home video in which she explains how magic water works and how she uses it. We also share the recipe for Magic Water! –Jennifer Poellot Harnetty, editor
