am i correct in thinking that the clay you would dig up from directly beside a river is actual clay that can (eventually) be used to make potery, aside from the hard compacted shit you would find in your back yard if you started digging. right?
-
What do you use to undercut the plate with? Whenever I've tried to make a plate my wire goes through the plate but I'm left with an circle.
-
Very informative thanks, one question, how many pounds of clay per plate?
-
WOW! What you do in the first 40 seconds takes me about 10 minutes! and it still doesn't look as good lol. I'm just learning ceramics and your videos help me alot. Thanks.

My big problem is running the wire under the large base. I find when I go to trim the plate the bottom is wavey from my poor job of wiring off.

Looks so easy when you do it. I have had some attempts, but not gotten any good results yet, so I came back for another look. Off to my workshop now! Wheee!

Sounds like you just need to leave some extra thickness to your base when throwing. Make sure you soak the wooden bat somewhat with water before starting, otherwise the wire will ride over harder clay made by the porous bat leaving a thinner base than expected! Good luck. Andrew

Any tips about what materials bats should be made of and how thick they should be? Hubby made me some bats, but they are too thin and the wood warped, so useless for throwing on, though great for drying and working on.

We use 3/4 inch oak plywood. The bat is stuck to the wheel with clay. No pins!
