Hamon Help

[MrFlea]

I want to do a hamon but i also want to try to make my own before i spend money. I have a lot of clay but its a wet clay not powdery so i dont know if i can use this clay? Any tips to make a watery hamon clay mixture with clay thats in a physical shape?

Heres a bit of a primer. Soo much opinion, technique variance, variables in steel used and every other metric you can think of.
It's really a lifetime pursuit...
