    I am not a member although have planned to join. I all too often have obligations which limit my attendance to meetings. I think I was able to attend two meets ever when I actually remembered and was available. Need to make it a higher priority. Looks like I am at least in town for the Feb meeting. Will add to my calendar and see what happens.

    if memory serves, you posted a pic of a Madrone 'bowl', so distorted that it looked much like an old beat up bronze bowl. I am interested in the finish you applied to achieve the antique bronze look?
