April 24, 2007 Handbuilding
We'll be making a vessel using handbuilding and wheel techniques. We'll be using Black Jack clay.
First thing you need to do is roll out 6 slabs just a little thinner than 1/4 inch. Slabs should be 8" to 10" square. We'll throwers will be throwing two wide cylinders.
Send me an e-mail if you have any questions!
See you Tuesday!
Here are some links to Annie's work!

Mold and MiterNext class I will be bringing some of my plaster slip cast molds to show you how they can be used by pressing instead of pouring clay into them. I'll also bring a carpenter's miter box to show you how it can be used to build or modify extruded shapes.
We will also discuss working with the wheel throwing class on a joint project to make some interesting handbuilt-wheel thrown objects!
See you tonight!!!!!

Extruder ExperimentsI'll be loading up the extruders and we'll be using them to make new and interesting shapes using credit cards and the multi shaped scissors.
I'll load up one of the extruders with two different colored clays so we can see what effects we can make.
Things to bring: old creditcards or those fake ones you get in the mail, stiff plastic from old laundry bottles.
Looking forward to seeing you all!!
