    Wow, very interesting yet again. It looks much easier than it really is i’m sure. One comment, the video cuts off too quick, you really don’t have time to comprehend the final product or register in your thoughts the beauty of the form and finish. I found that same issue for me in the last video as well. Thanks for sharing and congrats on recent achievements!

    Very interesting! Just watching you make the lamp is so interesting to a non-potter but owner of 3 of your lamps! The wiggle wire technique is really cool! Congratulations on your accomplishments. Enjoy next week.

    i can’t get a smooth running of the video. it stops and starts and never runs smoothly, so i got too frustrated and left after you opened to the bottom. wish i could see it in its a smooth even showing

    Hi Nan,
    What a great design! I would like to have seen you go a little further on the lamp making. I would liked to have seen the finishing portion of the lamp making. I love your work. Thanks so much for offering your knowledge and support to those of us on line just reaching for everything thing we can to learn. Still have a full time job, but when I retire, Look Out, I want to experience everything! I’ll be watching out for the next video. Thank You So Very Much!!

    Eleanor,
    Your problem is probably that the video is loading too slowly. When it happens to me, I just let it load…it will play in starts and stops, just do something else for awhile. Then slide the little button at the bottom back to start the video again and it will run smoothly. The other option is to go watch it on a faster computer.
    Good Luck,
    Patti
