i was asked to list what tools we need for the villagers in belize. yes
loop tools would be great. just about any carving tools they need as they
dont have any at all..i could make a list of what they need but the list
would be all inclusive.. they have nothing to speak of.. they have two home
made kilns.. one is a propane fiber kiln and the other one is a saw dust
kiln. all they have are throwing tools and ribs.. nothing else. they are
trying to get a ceramics program started there to help to improve their way
of life. i would also like to thank all of you who have responded to my
posting and for all of you who have supported this program from the start.
i have never seen so much support in my life as i have with potters. they
are a wonderful supportive group. i dont think you could find another group
in the art world that is as awesome as potters are.. i always wonder how i
could find the right words to thank everyone but words never seem to be
enough. for now i would just like to say a simple thank you to all of you
for your support and tell you how much it means to me and all of the
villagers that you will be helping.
