Does anyone teach ceramics? I'm looking to buy new wheels with the last of my budget ($2500) but I need 4-5 of them. I want to buy Brent wheels b/c they're the best but need something more economical.

Shimpo Lite wheels have worked for my middle school students. I've had them for about a year and they've worked well!

Can you do a fund raiser?

I bought some "table top" ones on amazon a couple of years ago for $280 each. I do not remember the brand but they are red and white ones. At 20" tall they are actually too big for table top, but I bought some small stools and we hover over them like a full size wheel and they actually work great!

I've been very happy with my Clay boss wheels by Speedball. Virtually the same as a Brent in construction. Only down side is plastic wheel head. However just keep metal trim tools off of it and it is a non issue. Also found wood stools that are the perfect height for these wheels. Believe they were from Nasco or Sax. The Shimpo's do have an economy line that is very nice. Imo, I would stay away from table top models. My studio choice is Brent cxc.

I have asked for 60, but that’s out of their budget. I’m thinking of accepting the offer only if 55 is fixed without any variable. What do tou think guys? Is it worth a switch? And is the variable paid fully usually? Thanks in advance for your insights.

Should I get a CPA for Transaction Due Diligence?
I’m a new grad working in FDD and I’m trying to decide if becoming a CPA is worth it. I do not plan on staying in accounting in the future. I’m more interested in strategy work. I certainly do not want to do Audit. Would you recommend getting the CPA considering my career aspirations? Do you think it’s worth it? If not, what is the best way to use my time efficiently?

We talk about keeping rigor in our classes, however I’m finding my HS students need straight forward instructions.
