Red clay review - Craig Dabler - sand casting tutorial

Hey there everyone!
The wonderful Craig Dabler was kind enough to send me some of his Red Clay to try. If you have watched any of my videos you would know I exclusively use Delft Clay.
In this video I use Craig's Red Clay for the first time and I explain the differences I notice between the Delft and Red as I work.
Craig Dabler is the DIY casting guy on youtube, go check out his very informative videos.
He also makes and sells pretty much anything and everything to do with sand casting. Like this Red Clay I am reviewing.

Craig uses mineral oil, bentone 34 and .... all mulled together. Nice video.

I use smith little torch propane oxygen with rose bud ! Top stuff keeps the silver liquid very hot !

Nice video … well done…. Have always wondered what Delft clay alternatives are like … so now I know…. Shame I’m in the UK and not the US….
I wish I had a share of your confidence when making videos …. you come across very self assured and experienced in what you do….. nick

Thank you so much for saying so :) I am in Australia, so postage from the US is a bit pricey. But I think its worth it when you know the person who made it :)

In Australia …. Nice ….. my favourite TV programme is “Ozzy gold hunters” The thought of being able to go out into the wild …. Find a big nugget to play with and cast into something special. … in reality … probably just a nice dream to have. .. thanks for sharing your expertise… nick

Great review!
I'm wondering which stones can I use for red clay / delft clay sand casting? Thank you

[@sandcasting_with_kirralea]

A good guide is 7.5 and harder on the hardness scale. But really it comes down to experimenting :)
