Unbelieveably funny! I always get a kick out of your utube tutorials
but this may take the cake! Hilarious. AND good for your body--the
added benefits of moving your body around and away from the wheel
cannot be disregarded.
I'm not sure the 'immediate" (reclamation of clay) is quite the
word tho. Immediate does not pertain, but as you said, "what the hay,
I'm over 65" and I would bet bending and squatting and reaching and
so forth does more for your body than the reclaimed clay does for
your art work! Keep on truckin', Gary! I think of you as an old
friend now. And you always make me grin, and I'll bet I'm not the
only one. Great attitude.

I'm past 65. On the other hand this method sure helps keep the dust
potential down and I won't have to worry about where I step if I go
off wheel for a bit. In fact getting up and squatting changes my
position so I don't get fatigued trimming one after another while
making a floor mess like in a factory. I usta want to be a production
potter until I packed a million anodized Mag-Lite barrels. Sure was
good beer money though eh? Thanks for watching and stay in there eh.
