I have two more on the Wish List to make for him. They are fun to do. MadDogMike thanks Mike its always worth the work to get it right. The last photo he sent made a huge difference in how I did the work. WaikikianMoeKele your daughter had a wonderful imagination to separate the two. I never had either and wished that I did. I just made things in clay. Progress Report: I opened the molds yesterday and cleaned up the casts. Now I'm down to just pouring the Missionary Downfall women (for 10Tiki Chef62) and the Severed Head. This was head number 3. The Frankoma War God is for Professor G. I will try a third time to get his white with blue spots statue done. Yesterday we went to Alpha Fired Arts the best supply store in the Sacramento area. They have everything for ceramics. They also sell on-line. While Dan got the gallon jars filled back up with slip I picked out glaze for the Severed Heads and other projects. I'm a glaze junkie. This shopping spree was my Christmas gift from Dan. What I bought except for 20 gallon jars half filled with slip. We only half fill them so I can add water to make them the right consistency for pouring. If I don't add water all of the casts end up with slip that will not pour out. When we got home we couldn't unload the car because I had no place to put anything. So Dan consented and we put up a shelf that we've had waiting since September. It was fast and easy. I moved some of my glaze test strips and we put up the brackets. My job was to mark where and Dan drilled. Then we put the brackets in place and he screwed them in. All four in place. Then I marked the shelf. We took it outside and he drilled the holes. Back in Place. HI THERE! The back edge of the shelf is sitting on quarter inch plywood for my glaze strips. This shelf is sturdy and will hold a lot. I also had two small shelves to install. One on top of the other and one screw did the job. I moved glaze over here and now I have anther shelf I can fill with what I bought yesterday. The numbers on the containers correspond to the glaze strip tests on the wall. I love art supplies. I wish Alpha was in my backyard. I have errands today. If I have time I'll start another project later this afternoon. Thank you always for the visit and comments, Wendy
