What you are looking at is about 2000 pounds of clay making equipment. We picked it up
yesterday from a studio in The Woodlands north of Houston Texas. There is a Soldner clay mixer and a Peter Pugger puggmill, used to make good usable clay for pottery work. The heavy steel and concrete mixer was loaded with a forklift and we used the Egyptian method of unloading. Are you familiar with that method? It involved lots of grunting, a ramp, a rope and rollers. If only we had the Egyptian workers to help, all would have been easy. It was a labor of love. Now I know what it takes to bring out a smile on her face. A big beam and lots of muscles.
