i have to get control, i read clennell and david h. i fall on the floor
laughing, and then realize how serious laughter can be.
then think of all the crap that can get into pug mill clay in a
high school.

mel, what is this bugger in my clay?
mel, what the hell is this pencil doing in the clay?
god, what is this? hey, gum in the clay. wow, is this
someone's tooth retainer? anyone see a rolex watch in
the pug mill clay? and for real one day....a class ring came
out of the clay i was wedging. it was 16 years old, and i knew
the initials, gave it back to the mom. solid gold. it had been
in a clay bucket that long.

the big problem that i have, is, i love pug mill clay. can't use
boxed stuff. got so used to texture, just have to have it.

and left handed potters...(here it comes from oregon) just do
counter clock. you have two hands, no left handed on the wheel.
i am left handed, and throw 'normal', just like everyone else.
had to change my wheel in japan to counter clock....i started to
stutter and hickup all the time.

remember, in japan, the cars are on the left, wheels go left, revolving
doors go left. just the way it is.

pix on my webpage.
sorry, just don't have the ability to archive.
just post me private and i will send them to you.
i love moving pix around. and don't want to bore
clayarters on that page.
