I learn more from you than any of the class instructors I've had, who think I know after seeing them do it, at their professional speed.

You answered so many of my questions. Pottery and comedy, my favourite things

[yearoldskater]

My experience is a bit different than yours. I cannot get a flat bottom with the wire tool! Instead, I trim the bottom of my foot using a combination of the trimming tool and a small level. It works for me, and I've grown quite comfortable with it.
I appreciate your skill, your ability to articulate clearly, and all that I am learning from you!

Really helpful video. I enjoy trimming a lot, and use a Giffen Grip, which I like because I can take it on and off
Your teaching style is great!

I send your videos to my students to watch. I just love your manner, I miss the east coast so it fabulous to listen to your matter of fact info. It’s a pot!!! Is our new mantra.

This is so helpful! I was trying to trim on a bat, and centering without the circles on the bare wheel head was such a chore

[ericspecht]

Good technique and easy to understand instructions. Big bonus, no annoying lullaby piano music like so many other instructional videos.

[MichaelSchultz-jx]

The bowl is slightly asymmetrical hence a bit wobbly.
