I'm having some trouble getting the bamboo handles on my teapots. Had one crack. Do you recommend soaking them in water first? I've not had much luck, maybe not wet enough. Maybe you could do a demo. Love your teapots.

@ebendershyde2 hi ..steam the cane handles to bend them to get correct width, then apply. this should help. SL

Yep, California has more people than our entire country... but we do have a lot of lakes. Over 60% of the world's lakes are in Canada.

Glad you had a good time!

@TheSignGuy32 Hi C ..glad you have got a kiln. Wheels there are many, my preference as you know is a treadle wheel! but any of the modern small electric wheels, like Brent or Shimpo would do you fine. I have Shimpo wheels myself in my studio, some of which are very quiet. Good hunting ! SL
