03/16/05 - Years of dreams and 7 months of construction and the new studio is done!  I'm revising the text a bit as of June 2005 and will add more pictures of the 'lived in' studio that is becoming more and more efficient and optimized.  Plus, I want to wait until I can show you my new 3 ft. kiln.  Shown here is the sink (mandrel dipping and bead cleaning area), portable photo studio set-up and the start of the double work station.
