Today’s frustrations and/or wins
It’s been a while since I’ve posted. Here’s the stuff going on with me I guess.
Warning: ornery and cantankerous.
Pottery class
Today I had my pottery lesson at Rain City Clay, namely their “sip and spin” crash-course to wheel throwing.
A while ago I’d bought a cheap learner’s wheel and while I’d had some fun trying to self-teach on it, I couldn’t quite figure out a few basic things, particularly centering, which is, y'know, pretty important. And it turns out there’s a lot of other basic stuff that I didn’t learn by watching a lot of The Great Pottery Throw Down either! Like how to test the bottom thickness, among other things.
🔏 General states of things
Some collected ramblings about the usual whiny stuff. Trying not to think too much about the state of the world because everyone’s already anxious enough about it.
