[Clayart] Water removal

[David Woof]

Hi Dorothy,
AS Paul said: " As long as you are not ingesting it!"
Woof adds: 'Many bacteria and some virus forms thrive in cool wet and humid environments.'

You may dismiss this as more "Woof off the wall" but guess who may pee on your grave if you do!!!  Yust Kidding sister!!!

Drink with gusto and courage,

Woof..........................................................................................................................

I was wondering about the idea of ingesting water from a humidifier. It is distilled; why not? But… I have been using distilled water in the Kitchen for 20 years and in glazes for about 10 - thanks to the help of clayart my burgundy glaze works just fine! I have a bonafide distiller in the K.

I have a bucket on wheels underneath it, sitting in an oil-change pan as an overflow in case I don’t get the bucket swapped in time. I fill a bucket every day in the summer…more water than I can use, for glaze, washing, and every other thing.
