This video is very useful, as I don't join handles well at all and gen to avoid them. I should give the a better shoo.
Also, if you're looking for equipment, you have find used kilns at estate sales. Little old ladies used them for china painting.
I see them all the time. Too bad you weren't closer,,, I could hook you up.

When joining handles potters either will score up the adjoining pieces or simply add water to make the clay tacky and pressing firmly. If you notice the cups/mugs drying out (not bonedry)... spray them, let the clay absorb the water and repeat a few times. You should be able to have a good attachment without fear of cracking.

Ideas - an old kitchen table to wedge on. Shelves for drying. (Transporting dry pieces is a PAIN! - I used boxes and newspaper and careful driving back when.)
I have an old kitchen counter and cupboards that make getting water and such easier. In general, feel free to go to livevideo-dot-com-slash-mariha
ni and have a look at my workshop videos. A lot of "home-made" stuff in my workshop. -
Thanks for the advice. I will try to have the same dryness (that's probably my biggest sin, when I think about it) and wrap in plastic for a slower, more even drying.

OOO - I like that signature on the bottom! Mine is very geometric. The joins on my handles have a severe tendency to crack :-( What am I doing wrong?
That is one man-size handle! Hehe!
I like the thumbholder! Fun idea!
Would be kinda nice to see more than your hands and your jeans once - just to see who you are. How about giving us a tour of your workshop?

When joining handles, you want the handle and the piece to be about the same dryness. The handle I joined in this video did end up cracking today because I let the cup dry a bit to much. As you can see in the vid, I had a tough time joining it. Also the handle could be to thick, this causes uneven drying which cracks will occur.

Funny you mention "MY WORKSHOP"... Right now all my workshop consists of is a single wheel in my basement. At 19 years old my money doesnt stretch very far, but the way I see it, every potter starts somewhere. As I sell work I would love to invest in an Electric Kiln and things needed for my own studio. As of now I rely on a buddy of mine to help me with firings, glazes Ect... If any1 has any tips that can help me keep moving in positive directions, I am all ears and very thankful!!!
