Requesting feedback
I’ve tried something new on my YouTube channel. I just posted a long format video (79 minutes) of me glazing and telling stories. My intention was making a video that could be played in the background to keep someone “company” if they work alone in a studio like I do. It was fun to make but took longer to upload and edit. My iPad microphone had some glitches which I need to figure out. That notwithstanding, I would value your feedback on this video before I try another one. I put in lots of chapters if someone just wanted to hear stories. Anyway, thanks in advance to anyone who wants to give me constructive feedback.

@Kendall Carpenter True! Thank goodness for that!
Puzzle Pitchers and Gluggle Jugs
Have any of you ever made a puzzle pitcher? I saw them made on this year's Great Pottery Throwdown. Here's some info about how they're made: https://www.vam.ac.uk/articles/how-was-it-made-a-puzzle-jug Have any of you - besides Sarah Hallam, of course! - ever made a gluggle jug? I'm thinking of taking on one of these as a project some time in the near future.

I'm leaning towards the puzzle pitcher. I am working on Pat's February challenge first though. My oil lamp isn't finished firing yet haha. It took me forever to fill my kiln this time around.

@Mary Carolyn Mine is a Skutt 818, but it still took me a while!

@Mary Carolyn that's the truth! I have studded tires for Winter. But the pottery supply place is still 2 hours away!

@Lyn Mattern I'm a couple of hours west of the coast. I've never even heard of Birch Harbor before!
January Challenge: Create Your Own Oil Lamp or Incense Burner🔥🪔
In less than two days, the new year will begin — and with it a new month and a new challenge.✨ For January, inspired by Gwen’s suggestion, we invite you to create your own oil lamp or incense burner. How it looks is completely up to you — the only requirement is that it works.🪔 For an oil lamp, you’ll need a container, a wick, and olive oil so the wick can draw the oil and produce a flame. Alternatively, you can create an incense burner, where a flame is placed underneath a small bowl or surface. The design can be very simple or more complex — that’s entirely your choice. Feel free to let your creativity run wild. This challenge is about ideas, experimentation, and making something functional, not perfection.🙌 Have fun with it, and feel free to share your progress, thoughts, and ideas along the way. We hope many of you will join in and take part. Enjoy the process and have fun! 🔥✨

@Angela Petty I love it!
Who wants to do something silly?
I want to take a pot and glaze it with three consecutively numbered glazes... ie; Amaco PC-27, 28, and 29. That's just an example. Any glaze line will do. Who's in?
