Throwing a Ceramic Citrus Juicer on the Potter’s Wheel! (And Two Ways to Texture!)

This video is a tutorial demonstrating how to throw a one-piece citrus juicer on the potter’s wheel and also showing two ways to add vertical texture for ease of use. The wheel I am using is my old Thomas-Stuart kickwheel, not my newer Skutt!! (See link at bottom!) My new series will offer new videos with tips and tricks to successfully wheel throw pieces- from beginner to intermediate to advanced. I will be offering a good deal of EXPLANATION within the videos to help people understand the mechanics of why things work the way they do! I often tell my students they learn more from their mistakes than from their successes in throwing. In these videos in my series, I will try to distill my best tips I have learned from my successes and failures, and my students’ struggles as well. Two things have led me to becoming the potter I am today. Countless hours of making pots, (and explaining how to make pots), and understanding and learning from my failures when pots didn’t work out&
