"O.k, we've got our little clean up sponge here. We just want to go and get into any of these little grooves, they might have little sharp ends on them, so the sharp ends, they'll fire up, and they'll be real sharp. Just going to clean up any of those. Take a gander at it and see if it's happy. Yes. And, now you want to take your potter's tool, really clean up the bottom here. This will round out the bottom, so, the bottom will be nice and round. Everything will be nice and centered. You want to have your ware board ready for this transfer, and your wire. So, and since our hands are nice and clean, dry, we'll be able to do this quite easily. So, let's go, turn the wheel on, off to the left, take both hands since this is a larger vessel. Maybe it's going to be stronger over here and twist it, and up it goes. And, here we have it, one finished squishy pot, ready to fire, anyway you want to fire it, it's going to look good regardless."
