"We got our spout, we got our needle tool, we got our ware board. Let's make this happen here. And always, when you cut it, cut it a little bigger than you think you need. You can always take it off. That bad boy's going to come right onto my needle tool. And right onto the ware board. All right, let's make another, same thing. Go down. And this is another thing too, you don't want to throw these too wet. You want them dry because we're going to be working with them here very shortly. So, slam down, nice thin walls, clean this up, straighten it out, okay. And then collar it up, collar it up. I'm going to make this one bigger because it'll be for my olive oil. And keep on collaring it, and I really like the way that looks right there. And it's got a natural little spout thing that happened there too. So since that's going to be my olive oil one, I like them to poke up a little bit so I'm going to do like that. Okay and then I'm going to take the needle tool, go bigger than I think I need to. Pull off. All right, so we have our spouts."
