    Sorry for the delay guys and gals, the pottery lady seems to be behind more than i thought which is understandable with the one Kiln not working. As soon as i get it i will be sure to post pictures!

    Update on my bowl, lol she still has it and thats all i got. The last text she sent me was that she was adding more black for me to the inside to cover up some white spots that showed threw. Again shes only working with one Kiln and there are tons of projects she has to fire. So maybe tomorrow she will let me know its done, if not i will text her to see what the problem may be. Thanks for being patient guys!

    Its not us that need to be patient... You have more patients right now than what I have. I know its not really her fault but still.

    It is nice of her to notice problem spots and touch them up for you and also to text and keep in touch with you. That's customer service.

    Looks good.
    It's a bit ' medieval chalice'.
    Nice one.
    I still haven't got a bowl I like, I've been searching for months. I never thought of making one

    And... drum roll!!!! Here it is my friends and I couldn't be any happier with the out come of this shaving bowl! The Crusader theme worked out awesome and I'm kind of glad it took a little longer than expected with Easter coming this Sunday. It will be awesome to put the maiden voyage of the bowl on a day that means so much to all Christians around the world. The Crusader shield is by far the focal point of the bowl! Thank you guys for sticking around to see the out come! I'll post Sunday's shave with it on SOTD!
