This page looks so weird when all the numbers at the top and bottom are so close together.

Thank you lunavideogames. I'm looking forward to seeing you at Oasis.

My mug (and some cool extras pieces) arrived today from Wendy. Very Happy. I put it on the shelf with some other maori pieces.

Erich said mine will arrive on Friday. I'm looking forward to that day.

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

Backing up a bit...on the first day I started to make replacement mugs for the wedding I forgot to check how thick my slip was. Too thick. It all stuck in the bottom of the four Tiki Bob's. When that happens I can't save them as mugs so I make more bases for lamps or torches.

So once again I turned the mugs over and dug out the thick messy clay.

I made a patty of clay and

built a top.

I put in a hole at the top and at the bottom back for all the wires etc.

I did a classic Tiki Bob.

I made two of this style and forgot to photograph the second one.

Then one supercarved version.

These will be glazed along with the wedding mugs. I never run out of fun things to do. Thank goodness for Dan.

PS I've had so many eye appointments. Yesterday the doctor found something to cut out of the inside of my eyelid and .... Success not more problem. Thank you all for your well wishes.
