Hey guys: I too am thinking about the Taurus III cuz I have no problem admitting that I am also a tool junkie. I realize that the ring saw would be something that I probably would use every couple of months, but my question is: I have a tile saw and my experience with it is that it makes a hell of ...

Re: chairs
Found mine at Pier One. Ann The Pier One Directors Chair is the best for doing shows because you sit at a high level (stool height) and your eyes are not too low to have a conversation with a standing person. The catch is that they are collapsible but not small or light. I always say that mine is d...

How about a camping store? Those collapsible stools? You could get one of those Dick Blick director chairs and cut the legs, figure out a way to put an extender/coupler on them.... Ikea's got a nice tall folding stool with a back, just the right height, almost cheap enough to buy and leave at each ...

Re: Best Tent for outdoor shows
Hi! For the past several years my husband and I have been using a Craft Hut tent. It's worked very well. We recently saw a Showoff tent by New Venture Products, Inc. The tent is easier to set up and offers great skylights. I'm wondering if anyone knows about its reliablity. Since I may have to set ...

I am adding heat and insulating the area so that I can work out there, but I'm not sure if I can stop the freeze :) a...

Re: P.O-ed and totally bummed out
Just pulled a gorgeous #1 fuse plate - blank out of the kiln. So happy with the perfectly formed edges, smooth full fuse top- controlled bubbling, I was doing the dance of joy. That is until I took it out into the bright light of the studio table. The dichro inclusions on the attached edge piece ha...
