Shaping a Free-Form Teapot

Video Transcript

"All right now that we've got it here. I will try to come off the wheel and start playing with this guy. Just take your wire and pull it through. Make sure you got somewhat clean hands and you could just pull it off and place it up there. All right and from there rest of this is going to be hand melt except for the I guess we're going to make a spout for it. That'll be off the, that it'll be on the wheel. So from here you got on the wear board. Maybe bring it over to the work table and figure out what shape we want to do and It'll just kind of find its way and do whatever it wants. So I like a little thing like that maybe and that's going to be the basic shape of this tea pot. Maybe make it look like a jelly bean ghost or something. I think that'll be good. We could put the spout out here and maybe put a handle that goes across the whole thing but I like where that's going. So from here we just want to make some slabs to put on the bottom and the top of this. So I'll show you how to make slabs on the work table."
