Dr.Fresh here and I'm going to tell you how chalk sticks together. For starters heres a fun fact about chalk. Chalk was used to create the earliest cave drawings. Now that doesn't mean the stick chalk we have today, but something similar. Chalk can be made many different ways but how does it stick together?
I researched to find the answer and what i found was that chalk was first formed into sticks. The method was to grind natural chalk to a fine powder, then add water, clay as a binder. The resultant putty was then rolled into cylinders and dried. Now that was just one way I found and there are surely more ways out there. I just like this way the most.
Now you learned one way chalk sticks together. When we made chalk, remember how it didn't stick together, this is why. Now you've learned a little more. Thank you for your time.
