took my first pottery class!! eeeeep! 🥣🌪️🧽🎨 cute date idea in houston! #pottery #potteryclass #houston #htx
How to use the claw first pull. 🦀 I’m not an expert but what’s what worked for me. It’s the most effective way to move the bulk of the clay up, prepping the piece for more delicate pulls later.
🔹 Stay Slick: Keep the clay wet. Any dry spots will cause the clay to “grab” your skin and ruin the shape.
🔹 The 1/3 Rule: Maintain constant pressure, but don’t overdo it. The golden rule is to move about 1/3 of the clay thickness per pull to keep the walls stable.
🔹 Inside Out Tension: Focus on pulling from the inside out to ensure you’re actually moving the mass of the clay upward.
🔹 The Pivot: Apply pressure with your middle finger at the bottom to hook the clay; as you move toward the top, shift the pressure to your index finger for a controlled finish.
🔹 Stabilize: Anchor your outside arm firmly against your leg. If your body moves, the pot moves.
🔹 Medium Speed: Keep the wheel at a steady, medium pace. You need enough momentum to move the clay, but not so much that it flings outward.
🔹 Pull Inward: Always pull slightly inward toward the center to create a slight cone shape. This counters centrifugal force and prevents the pot from flaring out too wide too soon.
Goodluck!
