B E L L Bottom Bowls

Thanks Mark (Shapiro), Now I have to rethink how I make the primary pottery object. But, your right, at least if I'm going to make B E L L bottom bowls there shall be intention about it. I think I was just taking what I got. I do much prefer bowls with less of a B E L L, more angular and appearing lifted vs. sagging.
I'll say the less sagging at this point in my life the better.
I am jonesing for a T R E A D L E .......hard.

Trimming and Handleing and Bell bottom bowls

Again. Remember to be intentional and thrifty with revolution, deeper more meaningful cuts. It's coming. I like the cutting vs. seemingly endless shaving the surface. For what??
At least I'm working.
Handles seem better to me, also more intentional, less weight at the top attachments. Easier, I like that. Bottom attachments for Handles are still somehow uneasy. It would be fun if I could do it with some pleasantry.
Mark keeps ringing in my head about the Bell bottom bowls, wavering between making some off the hump or not and/or just getting to them, think I'm scared......Boo! Maybe next week.
Hogwarts tomorrow.
