Saturday started off a little slow but, one of the first
things we learned about was clay stamping. Using a hand-held mold, the clay is
rolled in balls, pushed into the mold, and then stamped against the clay block
to get it out; sometimes it was not easy. We learned some interesting techniques
for getting the figure out of the mold, and to trim off excess after it has
dried a bit.
Unfortunately it was not possible to run any of the other scheduled
classes. So we made do. Poker dealing became a class, spell construction,
cooking more than meat on grills and a good time was had.
The evening capped off with a poker tournament that Sir K
won. (More on that in a different post)
It was a fun relaxed weekend.
