TikiAno I always wanted to see the pyramids. I'm happy that at least Dan's beard got there.

kingstiedye your mug is underway and it's a doozy!

======================

Progress Report on Wish List #6.

After weeks of pouring I have called a time out. That means that I will just concentrate on making things rather that getting ready to make orders. I hope that I counted everything and that we have all I need on the shelves.

I alter this cast for Frankoma bowls.

This one if for the cannibal pot orders.

Good ol' Tiki Bob is always requested.

Here's a trick. For the small Frankoma Tikis I had to go and add more slip every 15 minutes for one hour. On the last cast I decided to make a dam and to see if that would keep enough slip going into the mold. It did. Next time I'll use my new trick.

This makes sure that the feet are as thick as the head.

I have some molds that are very leaky. I plug around the outside seams so that the slip stays in but after I remove the cast I have to clean up the molds.

They need to be very clean or they won't fit together the next time.

I dry them out before storing them.

This was my full shelf of coconuts and hula girls for the Hot Tub Hula Girls. They are now all in the house.

I needed to make room for all of these casts and

all of these casts.

This is how I keep track of what I've made so that I don't have to keep counting them all over and over again.

This is also the binder where I keep all the Wish photos and instructions.

==========================

From now on I'll be working all the Wishes. Wendy
