Description
On this episode of Shaping Your Pottery we are beginning a pottery lesson every Wednesday and Frida and what better way then to talk about how to center clay. Centering clay is the most important step when throwing on the wheel if you don't center all the way then it will ruin the piece you are trying to make. The steps needed to take when centering are 1. Get clay as close to center as possible 2. Seal the clay to the wheel 3. Stabalize your arms into your body 4. Cone up and down to get out some air bubbles 5. Make sure that the clay is completly centered If you have any pottery questions send me an email at nictorres1684@gmail.com
