The best part of this is the little laugh in your voice when you admit you cheat the bottom part when centering! Hearing you do that makes me feel better because I do too.

It's only cheating when someone can see the hole :)

ann, always good to go back to basics, we have a great teacher, thats you, to teach us the easy way to do things. always a pleasure to watch , listen and learn thankyou

Thanks. I think pulling the walls slightly inward instead of straight up is the tip I really needed.

I’m still getting used to the wheel. This was very helpful! Thank you!

What a great video! Thank you for being a great teacher!

Very helpful tips, thanks!

Great video. Thanks for the tips!

Oh! Thank you so much, you've exactly described the problem I keep having throwing a mug - it ends up top heavy and a ring just goes flying off as I pull up because the rim is too heavy!

I get a great deal-of useful information from each one of your videos, you are a great teacher.

I love your videos, so easy to understand! Thank you!

I learn so much from your videos, all is explained so clearly and so well filmed. Thank you Ann. 🙏🍀

This has been the most helpful tutorial by far! Thank you so much :)

Part art. Part science. Fascinating Ann.

Thanks Paula for the kind words and thank you for watching. 🙂

Ann-- Beginners can become frustrated. When teaching them, I remind them that--learning to throw on the wheel is simply moving clay from one place to another. The skill sets they'll learn are: When to move it, how to move it and where to move it. This simple reminder helps quell their heavy sighs and provides a check list--which one did I fail to accomplish? Try again. Hope this helps some of you get passed the difficult moments.

Hi Cariad. Oh good. I get that question a lot about height. Like I said in the video, opening up the clay mound a bit wider than what you want so you have room to shrink the diameter each time you make a pull.... and always pulling up and INWARD is important to keeping control of the clay as it gains more height. Keep me posted how this goes. 🙂 Good luck

This was great!

your videos are always super informative. thank you so much for sharing....! How many pounds do you usually use to make a mug?

Thanks for the nice little tutorial. Looks like a good goal for a newbie to aim for. Btw, I was surprised to see you wearing your rings while throwing. I would have assumed that they might snag while opening, and you might worry about damaging or losing the stone while working.

I'm more afraid of forgetting where I put it after taking it off :)

I love your underglaze lessons. Could you share with me the name of the very small liner brush you use for black lines and details? I haven’t been able to find one which remains pointed while I’m using it, so my lines are always too thick. Many thanks, Glynne

*How is this a "secret" when you have posted it on a public portal?*

Schmutz!!! Great reminder! Always great to go back to basics!!! Thanks!

Looks difficult a skill, there should be a machine that can mold a clay like that instead

By the way, where are the so called "secrets"??? ...
