My last message regarding a CNC clay mixer should have said:
"it" was used for mixing clay and was very good
at it.
"I" was also used for mixing clay and am good at it,
but that is not currently the topic ;)
The machine was made in '68 and was bought
by the University at that time just for mixing clay.

My university has a CMC machine for sale.
Was probably a cement mixer in 1968.
I was used for mixing clay and was very good
at it.
So it is old, but a good machine, not used
in the last 10 years. Probably you could
have it for just picking it up. It is large and
heavy.
It is located at EMU in Ypsilanti (near Ann Arbor).

I am interested in the Walker pug mill, but I live in League City, TX. Would you be willing to ship it if I paid in advance for the shipping? I have an account where you would have to package it, and UPS would pick it up. How much does it weigh, and I will check the cost, if you would consider shipping.

Does. Can't be helped. We all have our own handwriting, whatever our medium and/or intent.

Vince wrote about my wranting:
So you can see that I agreed with you what you are saying and yet you disagreed with me. Read more carefully please.
Hi Vince,
Right you are and sorry if I offended you.
Your sapient observation that current trends produce conceptually competent artists ignorant of materials reminds me of Gaudi's Park Guell.
Gaudi specified swathes of lead glazed custom painted earthenware tiles for the entrance and similarly ephemeral terra cotta for the statuary - he liked the look. Now, we'll never know what that look was since the glaze and deco long since spalled away and the figures are now mutilated grotesques.
Best,
Jeff

I need to free up some space in the shop. I purchased the Walker last year from a local school district and as far as I know only needs a new power cord. I have been too busy to do any thing with it.
I am only asking what I paid, $200. Even has the safety cage.
I am in Lake Stevens, WA but willing to meet. Thanks,Steve Dalton

Vince, I think Pete was more interested in reproduction & edition $$$
without having to make more clay work. Mike Gordon
