Wedging boards: are large, rectangular wooden boards used to prepare clay. You should have two of the same size because if the clay is very damp, the one that is dry can be put on top of the clay, they are then turned like a sandwich and the top damp one taken off, this quickens the drying process. The boards are also useful for many other things. Have the wood cut to the sizes you need, 40 × 40 cm is reasonable.
