This pot, fresh out this morning, is in the mail to join the rest of your 'seconds'!

Pat

That's not a second, that's what dreams are made of.....

Hi Pat

I reckon someone has got a little "cascading Juniper" that just needs a pot with a cutout.
You may have unwittingly started a new trend in cascade pots.

To PeterH:

I had a good look at my pots, but don't have a 45 cm Pat Pot that's available, sorry.
Maybe Pat will have one at the WCBG Show.(?)

Crikey Pat !!!!!
I thought you were joking about that pot being in the mail.
I know all you pots are one offs, however, this beauty is certainly unique.
Not sure whether to put a tree in it, maybe it will sit on a shelf next to a Japanese antique !
thanks mate( I think)
cheers
Dave

Pat you make trays for stones?

I cant remember how to spell the name now...

Hi,
I think the word you are looking for is "SUIBAN"
cheers
Dave

yeah, cheers!

Dave, you were giving me so much grief....I needed to gain a little kudos!
Now I can sit back and shrug... as I did anyway!!!!

Ben, I don't make anything that's too difficult...and suibans are difficult.
Maybe this is the opening for you!!!!

But suibans are bonsai pots with out holes, and a no feet option...

Crikey Pat,
that wasn't "grief" mate.
Grief is when they rip hell out of your trees, pot choice, carving and pruning techniques and call your bloody trees "Topiary".
NOW THAT'S GRIEF!!!!!!!

cheers
Dave

Sold Pat - That's my pot - save it for me! I want it - I want it.

Bring it to WC show with you.

Cheers,
Leigh.

Yes, but they also don't have reasonable walls which give the pot rigidity in the kiln. The chances of the suiban coming out of the kiln warped is very high... you could possibly get away with it by firing to a lower temperature but then the clay would be porous, and then when you display your treasured 'stone' on the Baby-Grand, you'd be left with a water mark in the french polish.....and then I'd be in trouble!!!!
