Assembling Extruded Clay Handles

Video Transcript

"So now that you have got your pieces ready you can assemble the handle itself. I am going to get a little bit of water put it on that edge and take a scoring tool or your needle tool either one works. But if you have one of these scoring tools it just lessens the amount of time because you get so many lines at one time and you want to get that nice and scored up on the inner edge. Same thing on the inner edge of this one and then on the small one. Do it on both edges and once you've done that just set these next to each other and set that on top and then I like to use my hand to just support. Make an ark and this is just a wooden knife you can get at any clay store and push down in that crevasse to give a really good connection between all three of these pieces and then this handle is going to end up going on the side of the bowl and looking like that and it gives you a nice big area to grip with your hands and next I will show you how to attach any of these handles that you might have made for your batter bowl."
