@transfiguredearth

was over here turning a ring jug, and figured id take time to show yall a trick. these forms are notorious for forming cracks at the join, but this technique increases the surface area of the join improving the situation significantly #pottery #folkart #stoneware #handmade #humanmade

many types of seed can benefit from passing through the digestion of animals, and have had luck with other species. these have been sitting in a damp rag in the fridge for the winter, interested to see what they do #persimmon #bear #nativeplants #horticulture #gardening #gardening #wildfruits

was just in the shop today, and figured id show yall a trick. there are lots of ways to get even spacings for handles, decorations, and carving patterns, this method has given me fairly reliable results for years. easy, efficient, inexpensive, effective #pottery #folkart #wildclay #art #handmade

glazing some pots for firing the big hart square kiln, figured id show some old fashioned glazing. I float the jug on the glaze and roll it, letting just enough flow in to coat the inside #traditional #pottery #wildclay #folkart #glaze #stoneware #ashglaze #facejug #smallbusiness #cottageindustry

hey guys. today im bringing a little about feldspar pearls, and a recent misadventure with the gaps in knowledge. the process of learning necessitates finding what we dont know, and folks who pretend to have all the answers seldom learn a damn thing. #folkart #pottery #minerals #learning #knowledge

wish yall a happy solstice. our humanity is important and worthy of keeping. there is no ideology, dogma, or reward worth losing it for. to deny the humanity of others is to deny our own, if thats not the selling ones soul, im not sure what is. #humanity #morality #folkart #humanism #pottery

get questions here and there about how i achieve good clean joins, so figured i would just show ya. the high surface area and blended edge not only makes these joins look very clean, but makes them strong and resistant to cracking #pottery #facejug #folkart #catawbavalley #sculpture

showed you guys this pattern back during the summer when i was done carving it, and that gives ya some idea of how long it takes to harden, seal, mount, and chase before i can cast the mold. excited for this one to dry, so i can get it into production #handmade #tile #moldmaking #plaster #peacock

Both Trump and Iran need a deal. Even short of war, the ceasefire is putting too much pressure on the US economy and the GOP's political prospects. And Iran needs to translate the outcome of the war into much-needed sanctions relief. Both will lose if a deal is missed.

I picked up PicoCAD2 out of curiosity. I have no idea how powerful it is, really, but the UI design is impressively intuitive because I have literally zero experience with modeling, texturing, etc. and I was able to make this, admittedly extremely simple, medkit model without a tutorial or anything.
