OMG Pokey returns.
I would try the clay as it is first. Just some ropes
 or round beads. Make sure nothing is over a half
inch thick and all of it dries for at least a week in
a cool dry place.
If it survives a kill then soak it and hope nothing
inside swells. If there are particles of limestone they
will swell and pop lid the clay bisk.

Smack in the middle, Ames, which is North of Des Moines by 45 minutes or so.

Well I'll be dang. I was about 2 to 3 hours from you this weekend. I kinda like the area up there. Don't know if I would move up that way but the history is awesome! Patrick

Jodocus:
Nice one! The organic matter will not make it explode. In fact, it wil greatly reduce the risk thereof! Just make sure it's really dry.

Ranasp:
Good to know!  I've had it sitting on my front stoop on a brick ledge all summer so I think even with how humid it is here it's pretty well dried out.  I'll have to try making some herdmates for it and see how they fire up.
