You read my mind!

Uncle J.C. , I talked to my mom before you commented and said I wanted to give you a pot. I swear. Today I even talked to a girl in my class about it. I've made some nice lookin' pots! How you trim: first you pot the pot on the wheel, turn it on not that fast, and you stick the needle as close to the pot as you can, and see where it scratches. Then you move the pot a tiny bit, and when there's a light circle around the pot you put clay around the pot and take your tool, and round the pot and if your pot is really thick, you make a stand in the bottom. I'm glad I do pottery!

I'm not sure anyone would understand trimming from your description (although, for the most part you're accurate.) I still think you need a picture.

Have fun glazing tomorrow.

Make sure your mom takes some pictures of your work. Uncle Joe and I are dying to see them!
