Clay Transfer Completed!
Back in March I started shoveling the kaolin clay out of my old clay pit into the 110 gallon water tank, as the opening salvo of the great clay transfer. I blogged about that in a previous post. On April 1 we finished the berm that would border the new clay pit. The liner for … Continue reading
Update on the Kaolin Clay
Those of you who’ve been following me for years probably remember that I have a pit full of kaolin (white) clay that I don’t use often. There are a couple reasons I don’t use it, but one of them is that it essentially repels water. I get it reanimated with lots of physical effort and … Continue reading
Mixing the Clay
I’ve been experimenting with some clay that came with some fill dirt I had delivered to my home, recently. The clay is dark gray with a slight bluish tint. The blue is lost once I start mixing it, and it’s just gray. I don’t really care about the color, although darker colors are easier to … Continue reading
Getting the Mud Pit Ready
Yesterday I overhauled my mud pit to get it ready for some adventures. I made a holding tank with cement blocks and a tarp and I shoveled as much mud out of the pit as I could fit in that and another container I use for mixing dirt. Then I dug up the remaining earth … Continue reading
New Mud Pit Clip
I’m wondering now, if anyone knows that I published another mud pit clip to my clip store? I didn’t post anything here because I had already blogged about the scenes and I assumed that my fans were also subscribed to my Clips4Sale studio. This has been a really bad year for mud video production. We … Continue reading
An Evening in the Mud Pit
We’ve had coastal flooding here for the past couple of weeks, so the tide level has been exceptionally high. i.e. No estuary mud. On October 5, 2025, I finally uncovered my mud pit to give it a stir. Someday, I’ll need to evacuate at least half of the mud from my mud pit, so I … Continue reading
A Different Clip for Sale
First, let me say that I closed my Damsels in Mud clip store, because that one was going to take a lot of time, uploading contracts and IDs for all of my models. I thought about salvaging just the recent ones, but that would still have left the store nearly empty, so I just closed … Continue reading
Big Day, but no Low Tide
My Saturday on August 9 started out with a collaboration video in the mud pit. I had several people there to help me shoot a little drama, including a very nice gal named Saturn Amaryllis. My part was to put myself in a hog tie, slide into the mud pit, and realize that I tied … Continue reading
Mud Pit Photo Gallery, June 1
There is some video associated with this little scene. I doubt it will ever be available as a clip, but here are some stills that were captured during the scene, followed by a short, low resolution video. This was the day after we shot “Trials of John Marsh, Vol 1”. I was going out to … Continue reading
