Throwing a Flat Bottomed Oval Pot on the Potter’s Wheel!

This video is a tutorial on how to throw a two piece altered oval pot from a thrown wall and thrown disk. I put throwing rings in the disk for more visual interest! When leatherhard, I demo attaching the two pieces together and cleaning the joint. I admit, I should have joined it earlier, but time got away from me! I happen to be using Standard 225 stoneware (cone 6) for this demo- as that is the clay my students use on the wheel. For the great tools I used in the video check out this link to a live searchable (control F) Googledoc I continually update with lots of my favorite tools on Amazon using my associate links! I made this video for my Ceramics II, II, and independent studyI students at Mason High School. I am a public high school ceramics teacher at William Mason High School in Mason, Ohio. (Mason is currently the largest high school in Ohio!)
