  There will be an opportunity to build one for yourself for up to the first 12 people to sign up and pay a deposit of 50$ by Jan. 6. I will need to get supplies in for the class and I need to know how much to order. Final cost will be 100$ total.  
 The pot that we will build will be 3/8 plate, have a top opening of 9 x 11 inches and 3 1/2 deep with a rotating clinker breaker. The tuyer will rotate for convenience of attaching your air supply. A 1 1/2 in. flange around the top to support it in your table

We are going to try an Iron trade again, but without a specific theme. Just bring a handmade item to trade for another handmade piece.  Also iron in the hat is the best club fundraiser and a great source of eclectic giving and getting. Bring donations and dollars
