Dear Friends,

If the process described by Hank Murrow sounds like hard work then =
consider the advantages. This conformation is reported to overcome many =
of the problems associated with shrinkage and prevents movement away =
from joins and corners. That is one of the things which accounts for the =
long life of his example. It is discussed in "Handbook for Australian =
Potters" pp 217-244. Stephen Harrison et al.

Best regards,
