Trimming Unusual Shaped Bowls Using a Chum on the Potters Wheel also Giffin Grip Flex Sliders

 

This video is a demonstration of using a chum to trim unusual shaped bowls Chums are a wonderful technique for holding a leatherhard piece upside down on the wheel to trim I highly recommend my students learn this technique even if they have access to a jig like a Giffin Grip I review the very basics of trimming a bowl and then demonstrate how make the chum from stiffer throwing clay doming it to fit up inside the pot and then ribbing and scraping off all the slip to prevent the pots from sticking I also make horizontal reference lines to help place the pot on evenly I will also post a link of how I glaze these to really show off the split rims I happen to be using Standard 153 stoneware for this demo as that is the clay my students use on the wheel I made this video for my Ceramics II and III students at Mason High School The wheel class practices a few weeks on just centering and opening So this is designed to lessen their struggle 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 Please subscribe to my channel if you would like to receive channel updates or would like to learn more about clay and studio processes
