Wheel Talk
Ryan Durbin (@rdceramics) & Becca Otis (@5linespottery) share their experiences as potters, makers, small business owners, and creatives. Becca is a full time studio potter, while Ryan is a full time website developer and part time potter. We'd love to share our ups and downs along the way as we build our skills as makers and small business owners in an honest, informal manner. We hope to bring you helpful tips we've learned over the years, learn from each other, and share expertise from a number of guests with you also. Please join us for some Wheel Talk!
Wheel Talk
#89 - Do you need help in your studio?
Ryan and Becca try out a new segment on this episode called "What would you do if?" before moving on to the today's topic. Afterwards, they discuss multiple facets of having others help you in your studio/business. Questions answered relate to: when you should consider getting help, where to find help, what tasks are best to get help with, how to hire the right person, how to pay them, different motivation considerations, and insurance considerations for having help in the studio.

Listener Questions
On this episode:
- I’m doing some glazing & recently I’ve been doing liner glazes on my things. Any advice on stopping the air bubble pop of glaze when you’re dipping? I’ve tried going slow, angling slightly, but I still get that annoying pop of glaze on my liner. -passionateartsandcrafts
