"All right, so I'm working on my extra spout here. Just in case something goes wrong with those or I don't like them or whatever. And here's another little technique you can do. You can take your needle tool, and you place it in there. And you can throw up your needle tool, and your needle tool will remove the inside. Some of it. Clay from the inside wall, so you have a nice smooth hole in there. So, there's a nice spout. Cut it off. And we're going to start making some bottles. And, so I've got an array of spouts here that we can deal with. All of them look like they'll pour real nice. And, so that sums the clay up here. And we're going to make a olive oil bottle. And we're going to make a shoyu bottle. And of course the olive oil bottle is going to be a little bit bigger. Shoyu bottle is going to be a squat little funky guy. And I think that this spout right there has got its name on it."
