Question
Hi, I worked at a studio for few years and planing on buying all needs to work at home.
What are the basic+ equipment I need
I'm getting some knowledge of kilns but still have a problem with the cone word what exactly it means
Thank you
Adi

Answer
Hi Adi,
The answer is simple, if you have worked in a pottery studio for a few years you will need all the equipent you have already used. Make a list of the equipment you have used and you are already familiar with. There a plenty of pottery books with supliments in them for setting up a studio, buy some books and start reading, it's the only way you will learn.
