Say Group;

I made some bowls in Mashiko during a trip there in 2006 from Ko-
shigaraki clay, bisqued them and brought it home to glaze with my
Santiam River Andesite with 6% madronje ash added, and Marcos from
Clay Space fired one to cone 10 in 35 minutes(!) and pulled it out
and dumped it in water after a couple of minutes cooling in air. I
had Tea in it this morning in the garden and thought some of you
might enjoy seeing it on the marble table in our garden. You can find
it here:

Cheers! at the end of a hot day in Eugene......
