I'm practicing cylinders and keeping a few to trim as a little treat. This one had very thick walls but I didn't want to tempt fate in trimming them down so I cut in some finger marks. Not sure I will fire it, but it was fun to make!

Thanks!

While not 200, I'm trying to throw at least 5 1 lb cylinders a week before my next wheel class. It's a step up from beginner, so you're expected to throw cylinders consistently. I'm trying to avoid embarrassing myself lol.

I've been keeping photos of my cylinders after bisecting them - I'm sure it will be interesting to watch the progression!
