Trimming and Slip Decorating a Tall Jar Vase on the potters wheel.

Just a follow on from the last video.
This time I'll try to show you a few of my homemade trimming or turning tools that I use in my pottery making and a couple of simple slip decorations.
I know the vase was a bit wobbly,but this is because I tried to dry it out too quickly so I could do another video.
I've now got myself a Facebook Page so just type Youdanxxx into the facebook search and you should see it or click the link http://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/Youdanxxx-Youtube-Pottery-Videos/23438088663...
Cheers,Dan.

I still can't find you on Facebook :( Can you post a link?

[youdanxxx]

@TrocksVAmpire there should be a link on my channel page, everytime I try to post a link in the comment box I get an error message.

Or try youdanxxx in the page search on facebook.

I haven't done this in years, but when I did, I was taught to appreciate the finger lines, throwing lines. Is that just a different style? I enjoy your videos and your work.

@shanna1950 I also like throwing lines but not on this piece. It would then be too busy.
