Hi Julie,
I'm tempted to volunteer as a prototype tester as well, though I have to admit that I've already commissioned a local potter to create her own version of a scuttle based upon the designs of the Moss, Georgetown, and Kentucky scuttles. Links to information can be found here and here (warning - "competing" shave site link!), though for some reason I can't access the thread that showed the Kentucky version now. It appears to have been deleted. The thread started by 60CycleHum at 10:45 on 03/08/08 is linked here if the thread can ever be accessed again. Shame it can't be seen. The pics of this design were nice.
Good luck. I look forward to seeing how your designs turn out.
Regards,
- Mark (S-4-C)
