While it's not much from the looks, it's a bit impressive technically. 32 pounds means it must be solid. When we did clay in JR High I made a couple things that were solid but fairly thick and well under a pound. The teacher at first wouldn't fire them since an air pocket could make it "explode" and wreck everything else. Eventually she relented and fired the by then two things I'd done on their own. Nothing broke, but getting the air out had really taken a load of time. Doing a 32 Lb bust must have taken months. And it still cracked.
