MadDogMike we have no space so all bowls will be made fresh. I'll be super carving all the dry mugs, so as littlegiles suggested, So they don't go to waist.
littlegiles I haven't given up yet but when you see tomorrows post you'll know that the mean tiki gods were not with me and my recent bowls.
Bloddy Good, top 10 Yippee!!!
19tikichef62 thank you. My goal is to do all the mistakes so that no one else will.

Ever wonder how I get Dan to do so much work for me? His motto is, Will Work For Tikis. So this my first shouldhavebeen peanut mug bowl will belong to him.

I spaced them out and marked where to cut the clay.

I'd add some sticky clay to the cut area and push the mug in place.

Then I'd fill it in with more sticky clay.

Cut again and do the next one until all three are in place.

The bowl is soft and deformed so it will sit in a bag over night so firm up. Then today I'll add clay and fine tune it.

I have two more crawl mugs out of the molds. Sometime this week when bavtech/Nelson and his wife Mary are available I start teaching them how to glaze and I'll start on some of the bisqued items.

Cheers, Wendy
