84. Is This The Most Useful Pottery Tool Ever?!


Listen Later

In this episode, I talk to you about the 6 different ways in which I use my favourite pottery tool - a cotton tea towel! 

💡 - To reclaim wet clay on. 


💡 - To wedge (or knead) clay on to remove excess water from clay thats a little bit too wet. 


💡 - As a rolling cloth when rolling out clay. 

💡 - Between pieces of wet flat clay as it’s drying. 

💡 - In a technique to make a perfectly flat rim or base of a pot. 

💡 - To remove condensation in a damp box when drying clay slowly and evenly.
