B-mix be challenging

Tried a throw with it tonight and now I recall some of the difficulties I'd encountered the first times I'd thrown with it. For one thing, it's so soft that it's easy to for the clay to get "tired" or weak when the cylinder walls get too thin-- a thinness that might not slump with a stiffer clay body. Alas, my bowl began to collapse under its own weight. Even centering seems harder: the clay seems somehow more likely to amplify off-centeredness than other clays.

Thing is, I love this learning!
