It feels like a roller coaster ride to me when I see you cut through a nicely thrown pot. My heart jumps into my throat every time I see it.

I love beautifully shaped pots, and this one is great. I find the problem with strictly nice shapes is they get kind of boring if just fired as is. The technique you have is such a nice subtle look which maintains the form while adding so much interest....damn, wish I would have thought of that! Keep up the good work, I'll visit your etsy site soon. Mike Hi Jeff,

I also wanted to thank you for all of your effort with your websight and all of your other online stuff(for lack of a better word) I have learned about you and your work only from the internet and really like your work. I think I am going to buy one of your teacup/mugs I just have not decided on which one to get yet. I just thought that i should let you know that all of your online efforts do work and to keep up the good work!

I am really looking forward to doing a show at Lillstreet. We love the manabigama. Easy to fire, nice results, and more fun than laborious. It was the perfect choice for our studio. Julie,

The website's great, too. I'm glad to learn about your process, and very excited to read about the manabigama kiln; a few of us at Lillstreet have been interested in that design for awhile now. Best, Julie Hi Jeff,

Here's how I make my slip: http://jeffcampana.com/blog/2009/02/score-the-ultimate-joining-slip/ A more detailed discussion of the scoring and slipping process I use can be found in this earlier article: http://jeffcampana.com/blog/2009/03/the-making-of-a-flower-head-vase/ Yeah, it’s good ole’ scoring and slipping.

I am wondering how you attach the pieces after you're done cutting. Is there slip and scoring involved or do you just mash them together? Hey, great work!
