Excellent thread! I am in awe. Kudos to you all! Way to set the bar sky high!
Wish I had a group to "jam" with. It's usually just me and Terry Gross in a studio with dubious ventilation.
Again, hats off, can't wait to see what's next.

Thanks so much, Babalu for opening up your studio and kickin' out the Jams with us!
Now that I've got my Yip mug home and have had a chance to really examine it, I have found that it's quite a fantastic piece of art. The overall design and the engineering involved in the assembly was very skillfully executed.
So how ya gonna top this one, hah?!
Sir B

Hey Pops, wished you were here...we could use a few more Colorado folks out here for Oasis.
Thanks Rum Demon. I'm a big fan of your mugs too!
Sir B - Wow buddy, thank you...Great to hear words like that coming from one whom I admire and respect so much. Your the BOMB Sir B!
Sam - Thank you too Sir. It really makes me feel great to know your stopping in every now and again.
Kinny - I think GROG is the Master round here...you seen his latest Pig BoB? Then again, just wait til you see a picture of your piggy that I just pulled out of the kiln... you going to flip brother!
Hey, hey Kelly, Your bowlie is up on the table as I speak sis OASIS!!
Ok, I just unloaded a nice firing...it feels like Xmas! I'm only going to be represented at Oasis this year with about 20+ mugs this year... not much stuff, but I think they turned out purdy good. I'll try to take some better pictures tomorrow.
Sneak peeky -

WOW!! That creamy inside glaze looks so vintique! Great glaze on the outside, it really shows off the nice detail. I love that xmas feeling too! My wife always says that when we have a firing that finishes late at night and we get to open the kiln up the next morning. Great work!

Thank you Tony! I can't wait to stop by and see this new mug of yours...the packaging is killer!
Well, I posted the below up in Market Place already...
http://www.tikiroom.com/tikicentral/bb/viewtopic.php?topic=33516&forum=12&4
There is a chance...just a chance, that I won't be able to make Oasis. New grandson
Anyway, here's what they all look like.
Numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 14 the ghost drum, 20 the moss drum, 25 the sand storm drum, and 28 orangey are all 1 of 1's
Numbers 10, 19, 21, 23, 27, 29, and 30 are all a lighter carmel brown type of color.
Numbers 7, 11, 17 are a dark grayish color (this is one of my favs...)
Numbers 9, 12, 13, 24, 26 have a rich Molasses hue to them.
Numbers 15, 16, 18, 22 have a rich rust type of coloring.
Thanks for looking in

These are even better in person, you folks gotta see 'em up close. Each one looks hand built, which it basically is. Has anybody actually drank from one yet? We'll break 'em in at Oasis.
And why wouldn't you come? You're not pregnant,
SHE IS! -

Thank J...man your velvets are looking really fine! Hope I get to meet you at Oasis.
Kelly, your the bomb kiddo...I'm working hard on that there bowlie
Cammo, thanks for the comp brother, but don't be an idiot...If my daughter has her baby on Saturday or Sunday, I will be at the hospital to witness the birth of my grandson, and to support her in any way that I can. This is what "any" loving, caring father would do...my family comes before anything else.

Just kidding, do you really think she'll give birth on Saturday? That would be kind of cool, you could name the kid Cammo! Hmmm. There already is a Cammo, so you could name him Cammo2!
See ya soon big guy.
