Tonight in my beginning wheel class we tackled basic glazing techniques…
and then continued our throwing demonstrations with plates & platters.
I showed my students how to throw the plate. Then we discussed how plates are pretty
easy to throw… starting with a wide, low, flat cylinder… but tougher to trim & dry properly.
3-pound plate with white slip decoration – squiggled while still spinning!
6-pound platter… pretty plain now, but soon will be stamped which is no surprise!
