"So now I that got up and I moved away from my pot I am going to turn this on a little bit. So it can give me a perspective that I didn't have before when I was sitting on my stump. So I got these rings. I like the ring thing. So I got that ring and I want to make another ring. I will just use my needle tool and cut it out of this thing and there's another ring and wait for it to come around. Right there and then I need another one right there and you might think that that's ugly but I don't care. I thinks it's rad and when you put this stuff in the kiln it's all just things that are going to react and stuff's going to fly around here and it's going to create an atmosphere that otherwise wouldn't have been there. So I want to put some more of these flower things on here and then maybe another one that comes over there. With a big, big petal. That goes like this around this and whoop, I think we're getting close."
