my table may be dusty from the canvas, but it sure is great to be able to wedge
or whatever anywhere around the table.

Hi Steve,
Thanks for your comments. Do you find that canvas tables collect dust? How
do you clean them?
My currant studio doesn't have running water now, and I am looking forward
to the luxury of cold and hot water!!! ( my hands seem to be in the buckets
forever )

whatever size table you want, add 8 inches all around.

cover the table completely before using it with canvas-curtain non stretch
material.

try to keep everything off the floor to hose the shop out once in a while.

use DEEP shelves! like 16 to 18 inches deep at least.

use shelving that isn't permanent in the height settings ~ you'll want to
adjust them from time to time.

you might actually get by just well with no sink or running water. use

the
garden hose outside instead.

see ya

steve

Hi,
We are about to renovate the house and double garage will become my

studio.
Now is my chance to write a wish list for the studio and I am asking for
advice - what would you recommend as a good or bad ideas? Particularly in
areas of waste(clay & glaze) management,sink, glaze spray area...Studio

will
have plenty of natural light, separate glazing/sink area and big door to
outside.
I have searched www for sink designs (clay trap) but wasn't successful so
far.
Thanks in advance,
Andrea

Hi,
Hope this idea doesn't come too late. I have always found that covering all
my greenware and pouring room shelves with plasterboard (usually free if you
don't mind checking the dumptsters in new home construction areas) does
several things. You can put freshly poured pieces directly (after draining)
on the shelf to finish drying, and dry pieces don't chip or break as easily.
It also seems to keep the dust down and they can be wiped off with a damp
cloth from time to time.
Good Luck -- I hope to re-open a new studio soon.
Sandy
