This month my uncle delivered my beloved Lockerbie kickwheel. Currently production of these little lovelies has stopped and I was fortunate to find this one on Ebay, gently used, for half the original cost.
I was even more fortunate to have an uncle, not only willing to pick up said wondrous equipment, but also wanting to buy it for me as a birthday gift. Well ain't that a kicker?!
Sure is. hee hee.
I can't wait to get on it and throw some clay around. Deal is my uncle gets the first piece off the wheel. Completely fair request.

'Waddles' are also beginning to emerge and at long last the guinea fowl will resemble the Martian's entourage from Bugs Bunny fame.
