Hollow form turning

================= At least when you do "come down to town", you don't have to put up with all that traffic mess around Denver. Totally un civilized!

That's what is usually referred to as a closed form I believe. A hollow form is one that has a very tiny hole - say 1/4" or less. At least that's always been my understanding. These sorts of definations are by nature pretty general though, so if someone says they have a vessel with a half inch hole I won't lose any sleep in calling it a hollow form...

I don't know that I'd call them cheater forms. John Jordan perfected the bottle form and his bottles were all made in two pieces and the glue joint hidden by carving and such. Maybe that's cheating to some, but it doesn't seem to have affected the price any!

I used to live in Denver and was comfortable driving around there. Now if I ever find myself in Denver, the traffic scares me. I don't know if it has gotten worse or if I have lost my city reflexes, but I don't like it. I miss the plentiful wood supply, though.
