Ceramic Bowls: Attaching Clay

Video Transcript

"So next we are going to center our pieces of clay for these two matching cereal bowls, salad bowls. The first thing we are going to do is take our bat and attach it to these pins on the wheel. You can see this is not a very dry surface. What we are going to want to do is get a little bit of moisture on there otherwise the clay won't stick to it. So we're just going to kind of wipe over it like this. Now it is going to be a little bit too wet to stick so we'll just take that off like that. Now we're ready to put the clay on to the bat. Take your clay and aim it on to the center and just slam it down. Now it's on there nice and secure and we're ready to center and we're going to do that next."
