"Now some other good tips for the sink area, when you're done throwing and your hands are really messy, if you're trying to rinse that all off with water, it might take you a little while, especially where the clay is kind of built up, so I keep a big sponge nearby, and I use that to get that clay off of my hands before I wash them. So now I can use my soap and clean my hands. Another good thing to have near your sink are some shelves that have drainage to them. You can use these for everything that you have that you use that gets wet and needs to dry out. Like your sponges. You can just set that right there and it won't get anything gross and wet. All of your glazing tools that need to be dry so that they don't rust. The drippers that you use for glazing, brushes, anything that you have that's going to be wet when you're done cleaning it and needs to air dry, these shelves work really well for - whoops! And they'll just drip right there into the sink."
