Gayle -

We have one at the Guild in Parksville (at the Station) and we love it.
Good choice!

I am so excited...... we put together my new North Star slab roller
yesterday.

Now due to reorganizing the entire studio I have only tried it for a few
minutes last night...nor have tested Phil's great tools yet. Ain't that
stupid!

I just haaave to make the studio pristine..... Ha... well, as much as the
clay bunnies will allow. It went so far that I made #1 support person help
organize the garden shed also because I had an extra shelving unit left
over.

So this is an early birthday, anniversary, Hanukkah, Christmas present to
myself! Yippee.... it works like a dream!

I did my research... studied Jonathan's article, spoke to some friends &
North Star, visited a friend who has one, did cost comparisons on line & via
catalogs, contacted a few suppliers & got a great deal.

Ordered it from Bennett on Tuesday it was delivered Thursday! Of course
being in the same state was helpful! Bennett pays for shipping.

They are out of the short people table legs but will switch them for me when
they get them.

Thanks clayarters for your valuable input!

I'm a very happy camper.
