The Potters Shed • Pottery Classes in Adelaide on Instagram: "As requested, I wanted to show you the way I make closed forms. 

It is a very effient technique to make pieces that need a lid. 
This way you dont need to throw them in two parts, you can do it all in one. 

One very important tip for thos type of shape is to leave some clay at the top to close your form, specially if you decide to make a round shape like that. You will need clay at the top to be able to close it and make the knob. 

Its better to have a little bit more clay and take it off then to not have enough! 

Happy potting everyone. 

If you want to see any other shape here, comment bellow!

Michael Widhalm on Instagram: "The second method is super useful for very big pieces or small once, because when I only have a small portion of clay I don’t even center it before I use my leather on it so I safe probably 1/3 of the time.  When throwing big I recenter the opened clay so it is running very evenly on the wheel. I have seen so many different techniques over the years and I wouldn’t say there is one right technique. This two types of throwing just helped me a lot to throw precise and fast.  Any of you also throw with leather from time to time?  . . . #pottery #ceramics #handmade #clay #art #ceramic #ceramicart #stoneware #homedecor #design #potterylove #keramik #instapottery #satisfying #pottersofinstagram #wheelthrown #handmadepottery #handmadeceramics #potterystudio #tablewar Beginning Pottery Wheel Projects, Pottery Throwing For Beginners, Wheel Thrown Pottery Ideas Beginners, Wheel Throwing Ideas, Ceramic Videos, Wheel Pottery, Pottery Tutorials, Handmade Leather Work, Throwing Clay
