Video Transcript

"Alright so we've got our, our carrot ready, got our slop bucket right here. Just going to do it right over the slop bucket, don't want to get water everywhere. I like my handles flat, everyone has a different style of doing handles, that's how I do them. But you want to keep constantly turning it because you see how skinny that gets? That's because of the skinny part of my hand. So you have to constantly rotate it. But making that nice and fluid so I can get, it could look like ribbon candy at the end of my olive oil pot. But I'm just going to be doing a little, a little finger handle you know, not a handle like you would do on a mug, so I just need a little bit, size it up, let that guy set up there like that for a little bit, clean my hands because they're wet and find my needle tool and we're going to attach that to the back of this olive oil container."
