LOL, Chuck! Yep, as you get older, you learn to think ahead! The ability to make good decisions comes with experience. Experience comes from making bad decisions! :lol:

At least I lived long enough to grow out of it lol, but it takes so much of the excitement out of experimenting  :crazy:

Worked in a prison for 30 years if I aint shiny every time I comment its no big deal, I just don't wave pompoms.

Experience  also comes from making  silly painful mistakes . It seems to have taken forever  for my finger to fully heal after I got too close to the business end of my sewing machine 🙃 

@chuck123wapati my Mother's potters wheel is a ' Venco', it's a floor model  with  a pedal on one side . It does still work.When I saw the current price my jaw droped :jawdropper: they are now from $1000 upwards, holy crap ! 

You're  a smart bloke , do whatever you can to make your own  , but be careful , we're  not getting  any younger , lol 😆 

Last week, I thought I'd try and make a camp heater for my portable  gas stove using  a dog food tin , it does help to wash the tin first ? the smell in my workshop  was horrific ,  had to open doors and windows  : epic fail , duh 🙄 

HS 

i sure have my share of experience scars lol dont need many more but you know things need to be figured out once in a while lol.:Lighten:

Oh yeah Kilns and wheels are crazy expensive, i have a really really old electric kiln but no 220 in my shop anymore to run it. soooo... a new propane burner is needed to be built for my project. I'll post pics lol 

 

sooo..... one time, again not thinking all the way through,  i had this great idea to buy a small can of potted meat, don't know if you have it over yon but it looks just like cat food and as we have a cat the wife sent me to buy cat food lol. Soo anyway potted meat looks just like cat food even on a cracker so dont make one right after you buy cat food and take a bite in front of your wife or she will go into a craze you've never before witnessed lol. I've come to love this semi stifled growl she makes sometimes under her breath.
