-------------------------------------------------------- Thanks, =
claybuds, for the many really fine
suggestions for using the ^06 red clay. Wish I could follow each of =
them. However, John's comment (above) reminded me that, while I =

don't know that I'll be able to continue making pots for sale, but I'm =
committed to this one and want to make a good showing..... at least, an =
adequate showing.
To answer John's question...... using this clay right now would open up =
some new ideas.... it already has ..... it would ALSO derail the =
clayart-inspired
projects I am now trying to complete. Usually, hands down, I would opt =
for the new ideas. But
I need to do what I am now doing.... otherwise, I would disappoint the =
guild that asked me to join them, and others who've offered to help any =
way they can...... setting up, pricing etc=20
Your suggestions are filed though and someday...............
