i know this may seem like shameless promotion...but
i have just talked to howard axner on a different topic
(cane handles) and he said that nils has
made a new revised throwing cd. it is much
cleaner than the old 3 tape set.
so, i talked to nils, and he is very pleased
with the new video...and i said i would
just mention it on clayart.
we want to know what clayart friends are doing.
it is ok as long as it is not out and out commercial
promotion.
it is nice to promote others...as i try to do.
even when they are dear friends.

dear mel,
sorry for correcting you, but
its not a video, its a dvd, and it is a super
one indeed.
even a stubborn handbuilder (me) starts to
enjoy the throwing on the potters wheel after
watching it, and its all nils lou's fault :)
it is so easy to watch different segments on it,
much better than a video tape.

below the info from axners newsletter:
happy merry and love to everyone from marta
