Hey simon, have not seen you doing any Raku for ages. Any soon? Love the Raku videos and finished pots.

@porteynon ..I know its time I did some ! Maybe when the weather warms a touch !

I found your advice in a previous clip to not hesitate in fluting really helped.

I really like that "C" fluting! very nice! Have you tried "S" shaped fluting by any chance? I have few bowls that are "S" fluted and they looks amazing.

PS: I think something's wrong with your camera's white balance..

how does vinegar help work the thin part in the bowl? 

[sleachpots]

@armydawg1292 where you have a hole using vinegar mixed with some clay may be better than using water and clay. SL

@sleachpots Thanks! I cant believe I actually got a reply I look up to you Mr. Leach!

Speaking of cold, last Saturday in Saskatoon, it was +3 C. Three days later it was -38C...a drop of 41 degrees. (+37F to -36F a drop of 73 degrees F).

I've been in the studio fluting bowls. Thanks.

@enchalm1 that's mind blowing ! how do you stand it ? If I lived there I would fly south for the winter !!

[enchalm1]

@sleachpots I sometimes wish I were in Spain, but if you dress for it, this is a beautiful area. It isn't usually that cold.
