    Camping, kayaking, family, travel, Art in general. I have a small studio in my garage. Two electric kilns, two wheels, wedging table etc. I am primarily interested in cone 6 Ox. but like to see what is going on at all ranges. Read about ceramics voraciously and love the feel of the clay and throwing. Have to admit that my greatest joy is in the making, not the glazing. That said I do mix my own glazes, some of my own formulas, some borrowed. Retired from teaching art, in 2009 after 36 years, taught ceramics 34 of those years.

  1. Working on regular butter dishes. I made one for Christmas last year for a niece, now all of the aunts want one this year. Trying to be more efficient than on off.

      Hope that gave you some ideas Min. The grooves in the molding actually help me get pretty straight cuts as one groove is wide and I use the outside edge for cutting the end, and the inside edge for cutting the sides.

      I like your molding idea to create the step in the base. In Canada butter mostly comes in 1 lb blocks so I'm thinking more of a box shape rather than a rectangle to fit part of a block of butter.

      Sounds like it would work, pick your molding carefully. Mine was a window/doorway molding.

       

      best,
