I will try this, but I don't think it's easy like this. This form would look really good with wood fire or soda fire. Thanks for posting.

I put a small nail (even a brad) and length of guitar wire in a drill chuck and run the drill slow while holding the wire and with tension feeding it onto the rotating small nail. This produces a tight coil of wire which I then load into an adjustable cheese cutter fron which I have removed the original wire.

With this I can better control the depth of the wire cut.

By choosing various sized nails, wire guage and stretching the wire 'more-or less', one can further vary facet results. Bill

Would look pretty also in porcelain; great tip!

[offcenteredpotter]

wonderful. I can't believe how potters can take wet pieces off the wheel and hold them. It's impossible for me. I can't wait to try this technique.

Hey, I liked that! Kind of a twist (pardon the pun) on other expansion methods after some surface treatment such as slip. Great!

Thanks Flush, your demos are fantastic! Now if you only had an English Accent, lol...

Keep it up. I wondered about that faceting tool...
