Project X Base Metal Clays – Camp Metal Clay Certification course
This class is held in conjunction with Camp Metal Clay Certification program. Learn all of the fundamental skills required to work with Project X base metal clays and be successful with five formulations of base metal clay products: copper, bronze, red bronze, light bronze and white bronze. You will learn and practice construction techniques including sculpting, molding, and refining and more. Extra time is devoted to discuss firing processes to achieve successful sintering as well as finishing techniques, repairing options, shrinkage considerations, and patina.
