Test tiles

Extruded some test tiles with some help from E. Didn't believe the clay tube would come out of the extruder because the bar across the hollow die confused and baffled me.


But I made a tube in spite of the baffling bar. It was a miracle. Then decided I didn't want tubular test tiles so recycled all the clay and threw the tiles instead. I think they might be the best test tiles I've ever made. Might be all there is to exhibit at my imminent mid term review if the kilns keep being naughty...
