With the studio finished I was able to try my hand at throwing again. Watching a few Bill van Gilder and Simon Leach videos on YouTube refreshed my memory on centering and throwing basics but, boy, my skills are really rusty and my hand strength isn't all it used to be. Here are pictures of my working studio and the results of yesterday's efforts. Will attempt to trim them later today or tomorrow. The clay is drying very slowly.
