Making a Handbuilt Slab Teapot - Rounding a Cylinder, Making a Spout, Hollow Handle, L

This video is a demonstration of Making a Teapot with A Collar From Soft Slabs- Rounding a Cylinder, Making a Spout, Hollow Handle, Lid, and Footring- (intermediate to advanced). I am using a soft slab which I texture in this video- but of course, you can make it without texture. My ceramics II students have a textured slab set project for which this technique really lends itself. The following link is a PDF of a photo of the patterns. The dimensions are written on most of the patterns. The patterns will be on an ” document, but you can enlarge it to make it whatever size you want. As I recommend in the video, I suggest that if you have not done soft slab building previously, that you start with something a bit easier- like a cup or a bowl to learn the basics of this method of construction before you try something more advanced with so many multiple parts like the teapot. Here are a couple of videos here
