6/15/24 Throw 0/1 It was the best cylinder I've thrown
This was my last day to throw another pot for the raku pot bunch. To add to the pressure, I only had 3 lbs of clay left.
I think this was the best cylinder I've ever thrown. I had a 90 degree angle on the inside base of the pot. I don't think I've ever managed that before. The cylinder was so good I didn't know what to do after that 3rd lift. I froze because I was afraid to mess it up. 🤣
Being shocked at a good start is where things started to go wrong for me. Instead of shaping my awesome cylinder into something awesome, I did 2 more lifts because I didn't know what else to do. I blame those pointless lifts for the collapsed walls.

It was 90 degrees at 5 pm. today. I am going to die in August. LOL. Today, I threw 2 3.2 lb balls of the Standard Clay Company #225. It was more than I had thrown in a while, and I struggled a bit with centering. Somehow, I lost the bump when lifting up the walls on the first throw. I’m not really sure what I did. There wasn’t a huge difference in the wall thickness after I cut it in haft. My u...

The first throw was doomed from the start. I really struggled with centering it. I don't think it's taken me that long to center for months. It definitely messed with my mind because I forgot what I was making until I had the start of a cylinder. I had intended to make another incense burner, which starts like a double walled vessel. I ended up having to scrape up the clay from the outer wall t...

I threw a cylinder as a warm-up today. If it dries in time, I may try to sneak it into my Raku Pots? batch. I'm pretty happy with the cylinder itself. I tried to get fancy and do a narrow neck at the last minute. I didn't have enough clay for it, so I ended up cutting it off. One thing I learned today is that my metal rib is not a good cutting tool. I was too lazy to put my rib down and grab my...
