Fill ingredients in wooden box, carefully mix, humidify with water, put in timbering by means of shovel if you use sawdust, or pitchfork if you use straw. In timbering carefully ram mix with the help of spade that there is no emptiness left.
5. In process of drying of clay rearrange boards and continue filling. Terms of drying depend on air temperature. In hot weather on it no more than 3-4 days usually are required.
