Oooooohhh!
I gotcha!

Like a munchkin from Dunkin!

Munchkin Pots!

We just googled the old box..lol...I was telling the Sorceress the only way for me to get her in the shower is to throw a box of donuts in there!

I wonder if anyone remembers the little hologram card with dude dunking the munchkins. It was good for a free munchkin or something.

Sucks that all the donuts are imported from China now!

Dunno if you have them up your way, but there's a chain here that makes fresh doughnuts called Krispy Kreme.
They're whole operation is a cool conveyer type of contraption, visible to the customers, behind glass.

Got one here in S Charleston. The amount of icing on the floor under the conveyer belt is ridiculous.
I’ll take a Long John!
Yeah....I actually think they use too much icing.....I also end up in those stores fixing their ice machines.
I dont work on the doughnut making Rube Goldberg machine though.....some other poor shlub gets to scrape dried icing off of the parts.

They closed them here, but the fake packaged stuff is available at truck stops.

Until my kiln is running, I have no more space for bonsai Pots. But these smaller footprints have been keeping them skills up.

They happen to be sitting on my 12x24 chimney shelf.

The shelf, heating better than a brick, is used as a draft inducer. Using the hollow shelf should up that.
My flue is 3x my intake and the chimney will remain just under that until the damper on the lid.

I am aiming to control the rate of draft between 5 and 15 seconds intake to out.

Spared every expense but absolutely no thought, this thing is going to rock!

Oh brother .....peep this too!

Who'd a thunk he....
Still keeping it Funky!

My husband called me today while I was having lunch with our son to tell me that one of my trees was knocked over and it broke the pot, stupid squirrel's. I was so hoping it was one of the cheapies, but no. It was the first pot I bought from @sorce and I believe the first pot he ever sold. :( I was quite distraught. Even though he has not always been the biggest fan of my hobby, my husband is coming around. He went and got some super glue and luckily the pot was broken in 4 big pieces and was glued back together, with just a little chip on the back. So crisis averted. Not sure I will ever plant the pot again, but I'm so happy it survived as it has sentimental value.

If it doesn't stay together, I'd be happy to kintsugi it for you with @ABCarve's epoxy and gold leaf method.
