I have an oil-filled electric radiator in my studio - it's thermostatically
controlled and keeps my studio at a nice and warm even temperature. No CO or fumes - just a cosy feeling. But then again, my studio is small and cosy anyway - and well insulated! I have it positioned near to my wheel seat - so I have a nice warm bum when throwing. :-)) Just what a girl needs when it's cold outside. Brrr. Keep warm my friends. JM |

Since i don't work there all the time, there is a little electric fros****ch running when i am not there. Only disadvantage is, the clay gets awfully cold to work with.

Answer to that be "use warm water to throw with" i got an electric kettle
(cheap + cheerful about £5 from a local discount store (quiddy shop in uk)) and just use it for hetaing throwing water.... hugs Eddie course if you be handbuilding then it's more of a problem, maybe have brekky first so that the warmth gets into the clay?????

more. Nope - I don't....My studio is very small (try 8' X 8') it's a garden chalet - and my two large kilns are in the garage. Has anyone here got a smaller studio? I cope; and that's with a pugmill, drying shelves, wheel, two stools and a workbench (not to mention my compressor and buckets of glaze and powders). Room for a kiln - NO! Cosy? Definately! But I still have enough room to produce a kiln full in a day. :-) JM |

She (her web page that is) up and disappeared one day and rumor has it that she gave potting up. A sad loss. I really liked her web page and all the wonderful pictures she shared. |

It sounds like you are referring to Linda Pahl. Somehow I was able to
find her website again a while back. Here's the link: http://web.archive.org/web/200402140...ests/id46.html Gaye |

This time I will email myself her name (brain dead for names). |
