New Gas Kiln

I haven't done much with my website lately but I've been keeping busy. I now have a 24-cubic foot Olsen gas Kiln. Hoping to test fire it within two weeks. Need to spray a coat of ITC on the inside and get a 120lb propane tank set up. Gas line is dug and we're getting close to firing her up. I'm also making a bunch of close to life size torso sculptures. Once I get this kiln going I'll post a bunch of new photos and some videos.

New Kiln

Man! I haven't posted any news lately. The studio remodel is still not complete yet. Surprise suprise. Yeah, I suppose money is always an issue but now the new project is a new kiln. I recently was given a 27 cubic foot gas fired updraft kiln. Moving it was quite a chore but its in place and now I'm working on that. Hasn't been fired for 20 years. Check out my Face book photo albums for details.

Remodel Project Going Slow

Well, the studio remodel project is going much slower than expected. Need to put up some cement board and then move the electric kiln into the studio.

Since I couldn't get that done this past holiday weekend I made a pinch pot fish and threw some tea bowls on all three wheels that I made.

Korean Style Kick Wheel

I'm finally finishing my Korean Style Kick Wheel. I had a machine shop fabricate the base and shaft. Now I just need to drill out the kick wheel to accomodate bigger bearings. I started this project over a year ago. Looks great. Check it out on my blog.

Oh! Still remodeling the studio. Next step is getting the wiring done for my new used kiln.

New Studio Equipment

I recently aquired a bunch of stuff for the studio which is now requiring me to "regoranize" my working space. On the "to do" list is mount my clay extruder to the wall. Move a used bisque kiln to the basement and get it wired up, and finish my korean kick wheel that I made a long time ago. I finally got a machine shop to fabricate the base and shaft and hope to be kicking it this weekend. Also have lots of misc. kiln parts and lots of soft brick I need to do something with. And, clean. Seems like I do more cleaning than throwing.

The News Is

I have no news. Will have to make some this weekend.

DANG IT!

I was trying to edit and arrange my photo galleries of my pottery and I hit some damn global delete button and lost all my photos. Will try to recreate the galleries this weekend.

This is a test

This is a test to see what happens when I "add news."

Thanks to my brother I'm on my way to creating a website for my pottery. I'm not too computer smart but I'd like to create a few photo galleries of my pottery, kilns and techniques. So, please bear with me while my new web site is being "constructed."

Website created!...

This website is still under construction, please visit us later!
