a little bit of the red stuff...

































































here's some of the red stuff from yesterday...yep a kinda clean wheel to start with, i have to do that part of the process eh? I made a few teapots, the lids are resting on some very special molds to get the curve that sometimes remains through the firing..

then got into some big stuff with one of mr cardews drop molds...heavy!!! and a shot of some of the tools i used for anna...

the panorama shot is from the little bench outside doug's workshop, a great day! and to top it off we went to the local game last night what a laugh, i'll put some video together later, talk about loud...and finished off with chippies for tea, v. healthy!!
