When I first learned to throw, I was initially a bit intimidated by the Giffin Grip®, and used the old-school method of centering the piece to be trimmed with lumps of fresh clay. One day, I asked a classmate if I could watch her use this "gripping device" while she trimmed her bowls. What an ease to use and a HUGE time-saver when trimming! I've since bought one for myself and use my clay for throwing, not for trimming. FANTASTIC product!
