How to Connect Clay Slabs

Video Transcript

"So, now all four pieces have been scored on the top edge of one side and then the edge of the other. And, I'm going to do this upside down. So, I need the holes that are cut for the water to be at the top and each piece is going to fit together with the next with this edge going up against the inside edge like this. And, try to make those pretty even up against each other. Because, you want this to look like a cube when it's complete. And, just holding the one that has the scoring on the front edge push the other one into it. You want to use pretty firm pressure. The better you get this connected the less likely it is to crack apart later on in the process. So, once you've got it pushed into itself really nicely you just take your finger and smooth out whatever bumps you might have created. And, then use your sponge and just clean that area off. Now, you can go back again later as it's drying a little bit more and clean that up some more. So, I'm just going to attach the other two pieces in the exact same way and then I'll show you how to attach the bottom."
