NOTE: This is an early production unit and I will be sharing my feedback with Tronxy to help improve this product.
Overall I'm very impressed with this printer. Clay is a great material to work with, and I can see this printer having some major commercial and artistic applications for small ceramics studios.

Tronxy clay (I would recommend buying clay in bulk locally as it is expensive to buy in small quantities from Tronxy):

Much cheaper clay (50 lb bag of smooth clay, enough for ~200 medium sized prints)

Clay costs about $1 per pound from a local supplier. Most art stores or ceramics supply stores will have it in stock. The clay sent by Tronxy has little to no sand or grog added. I'm guessing this helps with extrusion, so ask for a "smooth" clay if you want a similar clay.
Notes on firing:
Firing is a very complex process. If you are having pieces fired by a ceramics studio it is important to know the "cone", or firing temperature, of your clay. If the clay is too low temperature it can completely melt and cause catastrophic damage to their kiln. I would hold on to the clay label, or buy it through the studio so they know you are using the correct clay.
I am planning a follow-up video on glazing. Stay tuned for that!
I can also cover the fundamentals of clay working if there is interest (let me know in the comments if you want to see that)!
