Drilling Kunda Vessel.
Click the link:
The top vessel requires a small hole in it to allow the sand to pass through and be caught by the other below it. The form had become slightly too dry, I had missed the easy time to do this, and so the surface was much harder but also much more brittle. I had to spin the screw with force but softly, all the while worrying that the base may all of a sudden crack.
The burnished, textured surface made the inner of the form seem like a whole undulating landscape. As I twisted the screw I felt that I was mining, until I broke through to the other side. There was nothing left to drill.
