New Greenware Measuring Device is in the Studio





Here's what it looks like!  To measure your greenware piece, place it in the corner of the box (thanks to Solveig for providing the illustrative bowl).

In a nutshell, measure all three dimensions (height, width, and depth).  You may round up or round down, depending on how close the dimension is to the inch measurement marks.  Then, multiply together and multiply that product by .03 cents.

You'll need to place a slip inside your piece with your name, a short descriptor of the piece (this could be "medium bowl with double rim"), the date you placed it on the shelf, and the dimensions.  The Art Center will bill you at the end of the month.

Tommye asked that the new policy start this September.  So, anything placed on the "to be bisqued shelf" from now on needs to have a slip in it.  Previously fired works (that are waiting to be glazed in the bisque stage) and works currently on the shelf are "grandfathered" and you won't be charged for them.

Here's some more photos that give close-ups of the measuring process:
