It's no secret that we're big fans of Slumpy's and regularly stock well over 600 of their molds. It's taken us a couple of deliveries and much feedback from customers and staff to find out what you all want.Didn't help much. We just learnt that you want more selection.
So we said the heck with it and decided to just order almost every mold they make.
In about two weeks we're getting in;
1) over 750 molds, including a bunch in stainless steeel, that because of their higher cost, Zenia will be setting up a mold rental registry. This includes dams preformed into circles and squares.
2) kilnposts and ceramic dams for kilnworking (i.e. making pattern bars)
3) fibre blanket in several thicknesses as well as pre-rigidized
4) lots of sushi plates (we heard you Margo)
5) lots of molds under 13" specially for those who've bought one of Coneart's great 110 volt kilns!
As soon as we get our pro-forma invoice we'll post it here and will offer a prepay sale on this delivery.

As you can see in this picture, we have the fastest teacher in the business. Like Superman, she's just a blurr when fully utilizing her teaching superpowers.
Wednesday May 19 marks the start of our next day time Beginner Class. But we've had so many requests for another day Intermediate Class (our Fri class is perpetually full) that we've blended the two classes into one combined- hence the aptly titled Interginner class.
Until May 15, buy a Weller 100 temperature controlled 100 watt soldering iron (the best there is) for a measly low $85.99, and we'll throw in an extra tip (value-$18.99!) for free!
As you might have read above, Figimodo, the official What's Going to be On Sale at FIG mascot has taken off to France for the summer, putting undue pressure on Mikey and the staff to come up with equally promising sales. 
We had the first class of our latest Fusers' Club last night and boy did we have a lineup!
A decade after scientists first cracked the human genome, scientists have announced today in Science that they have done the same for Neanderthals, the species of hominid that existed from roughly 400,000 to 30,000 years ago. The genetic information turned up some intriguing findings, indicating, for instance, that at some point after early modern humans migrated out of Africa, they mingled and mated with Neanderthals, possibly in the Middle East or North Africa as early as 80,000 years ago.
