New favorite airplane truck. Hidden latch to raise the aisle armrest!

Is there much clay community there?

My hotel bathroom has a landline for when I'm doing my business.

Follow some apolitical friends?

It is very TikToky. The ease at which you can share a lot of images is nice. Also I am looking for ways to reach outside community and grow connections. When you are able to circumvent the algorithms new people discover you, and that's kinda cool. Especially since we are so siloed these days.

The starter packs are great.

I hear ya. I have been editing videos on "Inshot" to create quality content. But the word limit is also a bit frustrating, right. Adaptation

Anyone else struggling to let go of IG? A real FOMO of connection & professional opportunities & it's daily entertainment habit.
Offers, opportunities, global connections & sales have been through IG.

Feels like a heavy lift, but maybe better quality engagement is possible.

Thoughts? Strategies?

Speak up and please repost!

Purple First! NYT Connections. IYKYK.

Hey Ian. Nope. Never been there. Not opposed to going though. Where did you see that?

Oof another good reason to proof read

Strange grouping of three words.

Almost as strange as
"Vacation
Bible
School."

Got any favorites?

Mentoring an apprentice be like.

Oh no! How much damage was done?

Nope it's in Bellingham Washington and is owned by @annieoclay.bsky.social

Big red cat stretched out on my legs.

For @lindaarbuckle.com not exactly a lap cat.

I feel like the kiln climbs slowly and is a bit sluggish. I also want to understand the amount of "Headroom" as John Neely calls for it, necessary in a bourry box.

I do. Like the old game "break the ice." I like this modular form better because each unit is replaceable.

Nope just 5/8" rebar. Because of the compression the bricks aren't really held up by the rebar. And the insulating fire bricks will keep the steel cooler

1. Created a flat top compression lid for my train kiln.
A. Took off arch
B. Used a modular soft brick compression design from La Meridiana's tech Roman!
2. Trying new video editors that will replace instagram's reel maker.

A gunner huh?

Great to know this about you. Ok, preferred position? And what professional team do you support?

I'm lucky my Sunday mornings are full of laughter & diversity. Yeah, we are all cis males, but we are also Muslim, Christian, Jews and Atheists. Folks are from Peru, Ghana, Cameron, Congo, Columbia, Goa, Palestine, Algeria, Nigeria, Denmark, Togo, Eritrea, Mexico, Turkiye, the Netherlands, & the US.

I do like all these things. It is a loss of something I have been building. But it gives me hope about decentralizing power.

Aww thanks Pet. You are the best!

I have joined Bluesky because I don't want to give up-and-coming oligarchs any help.

After years of building a community on Instagram it feels hard to leave. I do like how folks are reclaiming control over their audience.

It comes down to the attention economy and I can vote with where I look.

My Apprentices have created a patreon.com/MillCreek to support their craft education. These two are fun and making good work. If you already have a Patreon account please consider joining even at the free level as a sign of support. But at higher levels you get some cool perks!
