My old friends would be shocked to realise how badly I have lapsed, I find myself scanning roadside excavations for clay, looking for terra sigillata in dried-up puddles. But I find my wedging muscles are not what they were, way back when. <br /> And in my old pottery, I had a humongous de-airing pug, and a big old bakery dough-mixer. Sigh. Actually, I had three pugmills, which is a sign of addiction....<br /> So. I'd be interested to hear more of the PP, and useful stuff like who sells it in britain, and how much for. Single phase motor?<br /> Is it really "ready-to-throw" clay?<br />
