Coil Pot
Cut a slab to form the base of your vessel.
|
You can then start adding coils to form the walls.
|
After you are finished with your first layer, blend the inside of the coil to the base to add strength to your construction.
|
Be creative with the direction and form of your coils.
|
DON'T FORGET to score each coil ...
|
and wet each coil before adding it to your construction.
|
It will also help to score the inside of your vessel to add strength as you add layers.
|
Score and smooth every couple of layers because if you wait until the end you may not be able to reach the bottom layers.
|
Remember smoothing the layers will add strength so that your coils don't fall apart after drying.
|
When finished, sign the bottom of your vessel.
