Hey Cam,

As soon as Dave and I finish the plaster molds on the 4th, Dave says these molds are going to have to sun dry for a few weeks before we can start to pull slip castings from them (I didn't know this before)...we will only have one mold on each mug, so we are limited (time wise) as to how many we can get done quickly...once we have slip casted several of each mug, we will do the first firing to get some test pieces to play with...then we will pick some glazes and do a test firing on these few...once we have made our glaze choices from these tests, and we could find that we want to redo the process if we don't get the glazing we want the first time, then, you and me are going into mass production bro...make some time available. I guess bottom line is, it's going to take a little time to get everyone their Chop mugs out...I want to make sure they are the best they can be. Not sure about Oki, but I think the Man of War is going to need about 4 colors on it, maybe 5..at least the chop members version of it will need that many.

Peace out.
