she would show me while i sat over her shoulder, then she let me do it while she sat over mine. when she saw i had it figured out she would step away so i wouldn't get all nervous.

thats cool but pricey,but one lb of your stash will pay for it
ill have to buy one,when im "home(kali)" i took ceramics in hs,quite fun,bad teachers,but i got pretty good at it. ill put a pic of what i made that was entered in the show case. it represents the day that i was at my lowest point,i will post a pic if u let me.
one kid in my former class made a ceramic bong. someone stoled it from the room. prob was the teacher,she was messed up.
if you ever want to give ceramics a try,its quite fun,messy,but fun. you can make clay grow containers.

damnit, these are worthless unless they are annealed. i need to stop until my kiln arrives.
it's addictive though. View attachment 313851 View attachment 313852
so what,practice makes perfect. practice also cost money,practice is what will make you the great you seek to be. keep that in mind.
you could make a shit load and try to see if your local dollerstore will sell them,like 10marbs for a buck. that way u get some revenue back till the kiln arrives
a buck, lololololololol ........... i could make these all day. hella cool. ............ http://www.jandjglassworks.com/site/710064/page/415204
i'm learning how to make them properly next weekend if my class goes thru. i ordered a marble mold as well. it's not really a "mold" so to speak. you make the shape freehand, the mold just cleans everything up. evens the two sides out.
