Crescent pot construction

Post by alpineart »

This was an old kitchen ceramic biscuit barrel

that i picked up at a market back in 2010 for 20 cents , with the vision of making a crescent pot out of it .

Well i got my act together 2 weeks ago and began to create a pot for Sonic976 . Under the false impression that i accidentally on purpose used his Shimpaku Juniper he got from Shibui Nursery , i decide a had better make him a custom made crescent pot to put his Juniper in when i replace it . Bugger me i finished the base work on the pot ,

then found his Shimpaku hiding amongst the volume of trainers i have here . Anyway I will finish the pot and yes he can have it for all the help given to re-organizing my collection area . Mind you i had a few goes at it to get the finish he wanted and its not my type of finish , but each to his own , but i think it will work out well with a bit of finer detail . Now all i have to do is get the young fella to work that Shimpaku over into a nice cascade trainer and pot it up .

Cheers Alpineart
