THREE is my lucky number wouldn't you say? I am happy for all of us getting our fabulous mugs soon.

I hadn't noticed that Hiltiki. Anyway, we are nearly at the end of this voyage my friend, it's been fun having you aboard. I guess we'll cross posts again when we get our severed heads, although, mine has a long way to travel, so I think you'll definitely be getting yours first (maybe third?)! I'll look out for your post Hiltiki. Take care!! Toodle Pip! - Trader Jim (Make mine a Mai-Tai!).

I know allot of you who are waiting for your Severed Head Mug are very excited to get this mug and want to proudly display it in your collection and have waited so long for the day to have it in your hands, I want to Thank You for your Business and patience.... This mug making stuff is allot of fun and I enjoy doing it, But It takes allot of work and time, especially when I'm new to all this ceramic stuff and not having a kiln to fire the mugs....But Pretty soon I will have a kiln to fire all the mugs I make, and eventually in time I will turn PRO at ceramics. That's gotta happen soon because I have about a dozen mug designs in my scrap book and I cant wait to get them going...I will post designs later.... Once again stay tuned for the Tribute Mug top secret surprise bonus!!!!!!! Mucho Mahalos.......NOTCH [ Edited by: NOTCH 2007-07-12 13:41 ]

If they were an open edition, I would agree. But, in this case, the mugs are supposed to be limited to 100. The only thing you can really do is to destroy them.
T teaKEY Tiki Socialite The thumb ! Joined: Nov 09, 2004 Posts: 3687	T teaKEY Posted posted on Mon, Aug 13, 2007 3:34 PM you said 100 and you have stuck to your guns so far. Having only 100 makes the mugs in the collections that they are in more valuable. You even destroyed the originals that were a different physical form. These one are different in that they are glazed different but it would still more severed heads that you made over the hundredth number. And a shame to break what most tiki lovers believe to be one of the hottest mug around. They could even be worth more this way What if you sent them to different TC artists that wanted to repaint them and we would have a TC ebay auction were the money would go 1/2 to you and 1/2 to artist and maybe something to TC.

Here's an idea, since it's a limited edition of 100, you can't really sell them on the open market. But maybe you can offer them to those on the list that have been waiting a loooong time to get theirs. You can charge a modest price plus shipping. That way people have something while they wait for the good mug, and you don't have to destroy them.

(hotter than cone 06?)...Your red seemed to keep it's color pretty well. I might try glazing them again, and refiring...go funky with the color. I've had friends in school that would fire these low fire glazes up to 10 time before they got a finish that they liked. I have always been one for high fire glazes...just now starting to play with the low fire glazes...it seems that's what the people like. Peace out
