So much has happened since I last wrote. Connie bought me a slab roller for my birthday. She and the kids had kept me out of the backyard patio since Thursday. Turns out she had assembled it out there. A slab roller is a large table with two rollers on it, sort of like the old washing machines. It comes with 2 large canvases. You put a hunk of clay between the canvasses and then you crank away. In a few seconds you have a beautiful flat piece of clay that you can turn into just about anything.
Then, after a series of events that sort of ended up getting me some extra cash, including birthday money, I had enough to go buy a potters wheel as well. Connie, bless her heart, went and got it for me while I was at work. There's really nothing else I need to make anything I want now. I have the wheel, the slab roller and the kiln. Pretty much have a working studio. Just need to clear up more room to put it all. Getting a bit crowded in the garage.
