Cheap Sprinkler = Texture Machine

The cheap $10 sprinkler that I probably got from Walmart finally broke. So, drawing some inspiration from my clay guild surface class, I decided to take it apart and see what kind of parts it was made of. From a texture perspective: goldmine!

It took a little sawing to get into the gear box but it was worth it. I can’t wait to try some of these on some actual pots. I think some of the new glazes that I recently tested will look nice over some of these textures.

Also, a little bonus texture: I snagged a few of these baby rings. Thanks Quin!
