What is it? Instructions include preparing clay for throwing on the wheel, reworking clay after unsuccessful attempts (yes, it happens), and trimming a nice foot on the bottom. Cycles and technicalities of a clay piece will be discussed. Glazing instructions and proper handling of bisque ware, waxing, glazing, and cleanup are also included.
