Thanks to Jim Bowen for giving us the url for auction items ...... which =
I cannot afford...... besides, would rather try to make them than own =
them at this point, except for the possible investment potential. I =
know...... pretty crass of me.... but true. Arrogant, too, to even begin =
to think I could make them .. but sure will be fun trying.... I'll let =
you know in the next life how it's going....

Anyway, thanks to the aforementioned claybud, Jim B., I'm now enamored =
of Fulper, also. George Ohr is my true love this year ..... but that =
Fulper stuff sure catches the eye..... especially the "paneled" vase. =20

In the Mojave anxious to open the kiln and see if the three hour =
"fire-down" helped. I did go to ^11 again.... but just barely tipped =
..... much better. AND I was able to hold the soak to 2000 F, give or =
take five degrees. Can't recall.... it was either 2,000 or 2167 ..... =
we'll see...... getting antsy........
