Lazy or form crazy?

Tired of turning? Try a taper...

I'm frankly too lazy to make and fire chucks for turning difficult pieces such as jugs and vases so have developed a signature style that requires neither! It's not lazy, it's pragmatic. Honest, Guv. All the jugs, mugs and vessels I'm currently making are fired pretty much as they are thrown (apart from a little smoothing and fettling). I do think they're better for modern living - a flat bottomed vessel in the dishwasher doesn't collect water on the base like a turned one does. Just saying'...
