    Thanx Brad . That's a great tutorial & concept.

    Brad, thank you so very much. I would have never guessed that it could be so simple.

    The repair on that bowl is brilliant. Seriously. Hiding a crack by making a accent out of it is a stroke of genius

    I always love your "how to" posts Brad. You show incredible skill and artistry, but also a desire to share and inspire creativity. The lessons on craftsmanship are valuable, but the lessons on helping and sharing are priceless. Great work Brad.

    Thank you! I love teaching because I learn from others too. One thing I always try to put out when someone is watching me is that sometimes it is better to find a way to celebrate a joint rather than try in vain to work to perfection. I worked for five hours on the cherry bowl before I busted it. Rather than throw it in the stove, I decided to try using the cracked rim to incorporate some character into the initial rectilinear design. It was actually during a thunderstorm and I thought it would be better to have a lightening bolt than a single line across the rim.

    Hi there, I know this was originally posted a while back, but I have a question - when you've filled up the cavity with the epoxy/ and whatever your inlaying with - what process do you use to get rid of the excess before it hardens? Many thanks!
    Matt.
