[Clayart] Source of fine silica sand

[Ric Swenson]

Jeff,

I have usually used 60 mesh silica sand in stoneware bodies.

Subject: [Clayart] Source of fine silica sand

I have a clay body recipe that calls for "fine silica sand." I know that
silica is readily available from ceramic suppliers, but what about silica
sand? I'm thinking that the type sold at home improvement stores might not
be fine enough particle size, but I'm not sure what particle size I really
need. Can anyone offer help with this?
