5 Tips


After watching the demonstration video, I think that Tip 1: Use consistent weight and or size in your balls, Tip 3: Work on the top and left side of the ball for centering, Tip 7: Never touch the clay while the wheel is not spinning, Tip 9: Maintain slow and gradual speed of your hands up the walls, and Tip 12: A major consideration during all these steps is that friction is your enemy and using enough water will keep the clay from twisting or tearing are five of the most important tips. For instance, Tip 1 is important because if you are making numerous objects of the same kind you want for all of them to be the same weight and size; this helps the professional aspect. Tip 3 is important because like most clay container objects the whole is center in the middle.  Tip 7 is important because if not followed you will destroy your work and will be forced to start all over. Tip 9 is important because like Tip 7 you will also destroy your work. Lastly, Tip 12 is important because without the presents of water being creative and getting the task done will not be possible.
