Is there a technique for mixing the clay with existing material to make a more uniform weld, or should I just have at, fill it in, and compact it like a madmad?
There are a couple of threads on mixing the clay and I think a recent article in the magazine by Mike Otto on the same subject.
But, yes, have at it, fill it in, and compact like a madman. I personally prefer 2 feet of clay minimum, but pub 590 says that 1 foot is sufficient...two is better than one, IMO when it comes to clay.
