TASK |
|
|
Be
creative! Choose your colors and glaze the pot in a blue,
green, or tobacco-spit color. |
|
|
Ouch,
Hot! Fire the pottery in a bisque firing up to 1500 degrees.
|
|
|
Careful!
Place the unfinished greenware in a heated room, so it gets real
dry. |
|
|
Tough
clay! Maybe the pug mill will soften it and help get it ready
for the wheel. |
|
|
I
can't breathe! Soften the clay and remove any air trapped
inside. |
|
|
Digging
is work! You've got to dig special clay, not just any dirt
in the backyard. |
|
|
Hot
again! Here comes the second firing after the glaze has
dried.
|
|
|
Finally!
The pottery is ready to be unloaded from the kiln and sold in
the shop. |
|
|
This
takes practice! Get the pot centered on the wheel so it will
take shape. |
