Steph Wood's 5 tips

I haven't tried using the wheel yet but am anticipating using it tomorrow!

I believe the top 5 tips for me will be:
1. Using gradual pressure when making initial contact and releasing from the clay while pulling and centering.
2. Maintain consistent speed with your hands while pulling up the wall of the cylinder.
3. Friction is your enemy, so use enough water! Too much water can be used though...
4. Work on the top and left side of the ball for centering.
5. Use consistent weight and or size in your balls.
