  • What is hand building? It is when you use your hands and tools, you can make bigger sculptures and more textured pieces rather than throwing on the wheel.
    • Hand Building
  • What is wheel throwing? It is another form of making clay, tepically used for production and pot making. You use a machine that spins counter clockwise and using water you wedge and pull the clay into your desired shape.
    • Wheel Throwing
  • Trimming! After you hand build or throw on the will you can trim or refine your pieces! Smoothing the surface to make their apperance all nice or adding carvings or textures! Trimming usually happend with wheel theown pieces and is donw on the wheel as well.
