Last Fall, the Mod team was looking to +1; I put my hat in the ring.
"Hulk" is I, happy to serve with a great team!

Throwing and making, such a joy! Learn by doing, learn by watching; when you can't be there in person, there's the magic of "the internet" - enjoy!

Just watched Shinobu Hashimoto's clip on preparing clay for throwing (October 2022).

This is the first I've seen of anyone else believing same.
