business insurance is a good thing, about $500 a year for $1million coverage, which means if somebody knocks over a display and your bowl cuts another person, or your tent blows down and hurts somebody, you're covered. you might be able to get a rider on the policy for shipping art works. it's a bus...

POWER CONSUMPTION MYSTERY
i wonder if it would be possible to test your electric bill for a month without the annealer. do you think there could be another culprit in your house, like a refrigerator that is gobbling energy because it's old, or maybe some kind of a heater? you could test how much that annealer uses by looking...

expense of firing
i'm paying 22 cents per kilowatt hour, and the first month i had my big kiln, i fired many, many times, i think nearly daily, and my bill was $150. to achieve this, i never turned on the AC, cut back on use of appliances somewhat, and generally behaved myself with electricity. i had no idea what the...

To J Campbell in California -- Depending on what kind of work you produce, go to a few trade shows and juried shows, big ones. I don't mean as a participant, i mean to attend for purposes of evaluation. Look at the individual booths of the artists, and see how they present their work. Pick up their ...

the $300 for 1000 postcards and the photography sounds pretty good. a lot of people also use Modern Postcard http://www.modernpostcard.com which is a similar service, cheaper, but i think you have to provide them with the image. Modern Postcard's postcards are gang-printed, so they adjust the color ...

The down-side is aptly described by Kevin and others. I have 3 reps: one in Hawaii, where i live, one in Northern California, and a new one in Palm Springs. I'm in the dichroic jewelry production business, and these 3 reps do an excellent job for me. I live in a remote place, and don't travel around...

Dichroic frit problem plate now OK
Before we changed boards, i posted a note asking for some thoughts about how to repair the gritty surface of a blank i made using dichroic frit on top, which left a horrible surface texture.
