I love the cat, please keep him in the videos. He is very sweet. I have usually done most of this at leather hard stage but I will try the cylinder wrap around technique. Thanks for the many tips.

"When you do the first one it takes you an hour." Oh, I laughed at that! So true!

Just started to dabble in hand building this month. Was quite pleased with the three that I did even though one has a beautiful vertical crack.
Will definitely try the cling wrap when applying my stamps.
Will also use the plastic on the inside of the cylinder instead of newspaper.
So many points I will have to start using my ipad out in the studio to remember them all... Rolling a Bisto! moment.
Thanks for sharing!

😉 Found it! I rolled out my clay yesterday and I'm rewatching your video for tips! Hand building tall mugs is not easy for me.

And like the volume in this video went down and down...
Interesting and masterful way of making a textured coffee mug.

How many more mugs do we still need? :)

I like little tips you give. I know some of them but was super stoked to hear some new things!

Thanks for tips! Never thought about using roller for shape .. I usually leave clay out20 min let stiffen little then just cut 4 in circle add wall .. will try this see if I do better shape not be wobbly. 😊 I do go back use red solo cup shape after assembly.

I love going to garage sales for kitchen gadgets or the Salvation Army store to the utensil aisle - recycle is my thing now lol

Hi Vince. Thanks for sharing. I did learn a thing or two from this :-)

[jenniferlee]

Thank you, I’m going to give it a go from Jennifer Downunder 😀

I love this method. I am a beginner potter, and am overwhelmed by the myriad of methods. But this one makes sense, and looks like something I could do. Could you use pvc pipe instead of carboard tube?

[jacintasimpson]

Can you please say how you prevent the handle drying quicker than the cup. Thank you

Hi! Thanks so much for the video, it’s super helpful for a beginner like me! Is 6mm (just under 1/4 of an inch which is 6.4 mm) too thin? I am planning on using a hand cut linoleum stamp to push into the clay. Thanks!

[gbennett]

I wonder where you get your cardboard tubes.?

[kathleenhigham]

What did you use to make the texture stamps? You mentioned that you carved them...
