Dear Group;

Many of you know that I make some of my special tools available to other =
=3D
potters.=3D20

Hank's WireTool, Roller Trimmer, CutOff Wires, and RingBat have been =3D
mentioned here on Clayart.

I treasure the tools other potters have made available, including my =3D
seven Bison trimming tools, great ribs and stick tools from Chris =3D
Henley, the red pine nursery sticks that Mike Martino gave me to make =3D
foot-carving knives and the lesson he shared on their use. Geez, every =3D
potter that I ever took a workshop from has shared their methods and =3D
tools with me! I try to do the same with potters and students of pottery =
=3D
that I encounter.

The tools I sell are ones that require some special materials and setup =3D
that might be difficult to arrange for most potters, so I make them =3D
available. I also present workshops which include their use in making my =
=3D
wares.

Anyway, teapots and plates are drying, so I have to get back to the =3D
studio!

Cheers, Hank Murrow in Eugene, Oregon
