Title: empty bowls to feed the hungry

You can see balls of clay just waiting for me on the other wheels. It takes from 1 to 2 minutes to make each bowl. 1 min 45 sec sounds about right.

Post by: JW_Halverson on September 16, 2013, 08:58:45 pm: John gave me a couple of his bowls last spring when I was there. I kept one, gave one to the person that covered my butt while I was gone to the Tennessee Classic, and the third one goes up on the silent auction at the Black Hills Raptor Center's big fundraiser this weekend. Everyone that sees them compliments them. Plus, they really hold a lot of chili!!!
