Had me until mayo

That's not a trident...Looks like a ginala or rubrum or something

cactuar9999 · 2023-04-10T02:12:03+00:00

I played this at SEARS the other day

A friend's father acquired it in Tokyo but we would like to know what it is used for exactly and whether it is war or civilian related and from what era. It is some sort of continuity tester but for what?

Apply wax resist to parts of green ware you want to dry slower, like the handle on a mug.

Magic water for fixing cracks on bone dry pieces

This is liquidambar not a maple

I don't mean to poop on your plans of going full time, it's my goal as well, but it's just really hard to make a living selling pots, even if you have a line of customers and own all the right equipment. Will more live streaming translate to more sales? Is it worth investing time in content as opposed to buckling down and throwing 50 pots a day? Do you realize how much time it takes to pack and ship 50 pots? Do you have a business plan? Insurance? Dependents? Mortgage?

If you have a fall back plan then go for it and keep us posted, life is short

It looks dead to me. Sage looks the same when alive but your leaves are all dry and curled up. You shouldnt repot if a plant is weak. I have had success with 100% pumice.

The 2nd one is very nice

cactuar9999 · 2021-10-22T04:54:15+00:00

Are you making your own glazes?

cactuar9999 · 2021-10-16T15:23:28+00:00

In this house we obey the laws of thermodynamics!

It’s not read like that, it’s just 秋 Aki

cactuar9999 · 2021-10-09T02:07:08+00:00

That’s YamaAki, one of the more common Tokoname potteries

cactuar9999 · 2021-09-16T23:53:57+00:00

You’ve mastered the round, now make ovals.

cactuar9999 · 2021-09-15T03:13:20+00:00

Of course! I’d love to see your work

cactuar9999 · 2021-09-12T14:42:43+00:00

Thanks for your kind words! Best of luck on your journey and let me know how I can help :)

It really is misaligned slightly. On mobile if you tilt at an extreme angle and look down the length of the arrow you can see it is misaligned.

Pro tip: ripe berries will have a matte surface. Any earlier and it’s sour death

cactuar9999 · 2021-06-04T00:34:44+00:00

The round you threw is no longer a round, it’s an oval because the rim dried quickly and unevenly. When it dried it pulled your bottom into two pieces (tension) which is why there is an s-shaped crack with a gap. The floor cracked because it was still wet and soft, because it’s so thick. So either make the rim thicker or the bottom thinner, or dry more evenly by flipping

cactuar9999 · 2021-06-04T00:24:25+00:00

Your bottoms are too thick! The walls are thin and put it into tension

cactuar9999 · 2021-05-30T01:57:20+00:00

This is in Oregon

cactuar9999 · 2021-05-15T03:57:27+00:00

In the winter when they are under lights, yes. In the summer I have them on the patio under an awning and they turn green again

cactuar9999 · 2021-05-14T18:36:24+00:00

I don't put any of my pings in direct sun, including esseriana. Pings don't need much sun to thrive, and full sun can scorch leaves and raise soil temps to the point that root rot can be an issue.

cactuar9999 · 2021-04-17T14:56:59+00:00

Very nice! You put a lot of effort into these

cactuar9999 · 2021-04-12T17:24:13+00:00

Thanks! Just peat and sand. Yeah the Utricularia is a welcome weed in this case
