Ceramic Bead Tutorial

I've been interested in making a tutorial for making ceramic beads, but after looking on the internet, I see there is already a wealth of information out there about bead making. So... for now, I'll just pass on this link to a wonderful page chock full of ceramic bead making tutorials. This site, Ceramic Bead Artists, has a nice collection of tutorials, artists, links and information about ceramic bead making.

I especially am interested in trying the slip trailing technique. This involves squeezing wet slip (clay mixed with water to a muddy consistency) onto wet or dry clay using a squeeze bottle or other tool for a relief effect.
