some comfy cups

So this week i made quite a few "comfy cups". My idea right now is to make cups that are comfortable to hold without having a handle. This idea may not make sense but once you try holding these cups youll understand what i mean. Just making cups like these are not that difficult of a task but what im really trying to work on is repetition and being able to throw with percision but in a timely manner. All of these cups were thrown within a 90 minute period.



If you take a close look at the cups below you will see an indented band just below the lip of these cups and also there is an indent just before the foot. The indented band is meant for your thumb and pointer finger and the dent above the foot is meant for your ring finger. These additions to the cups make them comfortable to hold and hopefully they will remain comfy even after they are fired...but i suppose time will tell.
