IMHO design improvements…
A. The joint tray aligns flush w interior ring for easy cleaning.
B. Inner lip to “put out” joints, allowing ash to fall into the well. I switched to a nub in final version.
C. Deep well protects ash from breezes, w a smooth rounded bottom for easy cleaning.

I built it on the back of Seth Rogen’s ceramic design. Its deep well keeps ash calm in a breeze even near a window. But it’s too deep (or otherwise filled with ash) to put out a roach. And I love the joint tray, but its position makes cleaning inside the ashtray a lil tricky.

If you missed “Party - A Mystery” when it was first published, I hope you might take another swing around to enjoy this unique tale by the great Jamaica Kincaid.
And if you don’t understand the mystery, maybe get some help from a young reader. 🕵🏾♀️

It’s a strange, beautiful, almost inscrutable story. I mean…
“It’s difficult to read PARTY without thinking of this new edition of the book as a quiet commentary on how horror shapes young girls, even if something about it remains Kurtzian in its inexpressibility." @literaryhub.bsky.social
