About pottery.

Thank you for 'throwing' the pottery thread onto this ever-turning forum wheel, Tom. Since my first days on the Accordionists Forum you made a big impression on me. You have so many qualities; kindness, humour, generosity, openness, honesty, loyalty, resourcefulness and a willingness to treat others in a charitable way. You are a great craftsman in so many different fields, a very fine multi-instrumentalist and you have a oneness with nature and of living off the fat of the land. I know a wise man when I see one Tom, and though we may have never met I have learned so much from you. I continue to learn from you every day. Tom, you embody the spirit of the greatest of the American people. God bless you!​

Tom, your pottery is fantastic. Dare I say this is the most interesting and lovely forum post I've ever read. More pottery please!

Ok! When Ben asks we comply! Here’s the pitchers I made yesterday. Trimming and “handling” them today. Probably make some more pitchers today. For some background, my biggest hero was always Michael Cardew from your great island, Wenford Bridge and Cornwall (from whence came the “pasty” to our neck of the woods. Has “swede” but no haggis.). He came as a visiting artist to where I was getting my MFA back in the stone ages.

These are absolutely super - you are so talented.

I would commission you to make a dining set if you were a bit more local to Yorkshire!
