Working in Sections

This week we started making bigger pots out of sections.
Here we have a ten pound piece of clay turned into a base for a larger form



















Next, I throw the top piece. I think this was six pounds of clay. I left enough clay at the rim to make a grove to fit over the rim of the base.
















Here the two pieces have been joined and the seam is smoothed over.













Here it is finished the next morning once the cap was done
