Trimming a Wide Platter with the Wide Sliders on a Giffin Grip

This brief video shows how to set up a very WIDE form on the Giffin Grip using the wide sliders rather than the regular sliders which hold the arms. (Note: My Giffin Grip in this video is an older model, they now have improved versions over this, as I show in other videos.

For the great tools I used in the video (including the newer version of the Giffin Grip) check out this link to a live Googledoc I continually update with lots of my favorite tools on Amazon using my associate links! (also some non-amazon suggestions on here!)

In this video, I am using standard 153, a nice midrange firing stoneware.

I started my Youtube channel a few years ago, to make videos to help my students if they are absent and miss a demo, or if they would like to explore more advanced techniques independently. I have been amazed to reach such a wider audience than my own students!
