plates.

Dessert plates, admittedly not the best angle.
The soundtrack is just for you Kent.
Maybe I'll do a trimming video when the plates are ready.

Cheers!

I think you must be having a ball with that wonderful new wheel! Cheers!
I want to ask you a question about my 'sprung apart' handle. I checked on the replacement handle just now. It is still one piece. But it is not as nice--it is thicker. So is that why it broke--too thin?

Brandon, I use BlackJack clay from East Texas. Are you familliar with that clay? It is a ^6 - ^10. Which means it is not quite vitrified at ^6..but that is what I use. I like working with that clay and I have an emotional connection to it!! I should accept your challenge of doing dozens of handles--I'll give it a try! Gosh, there is so much to test, test, test!
