Weighing the material sieved out of the clay

Here are all the stones, gravel, sand, twigs and leaves that was sieved out of our selection of clays, collected in a fine selection of containers found close to hand. The job today was to work out the exact ratio of waste to clay used in the making of each plate, so that we can represent how clayey the soil from our various locations in Fife is.



The waste is first weighed.

Here is the working out for the ratio of waste to clay.

Each clay has it's waste weighed out into labelled plastic bags.
