How to make a pinch pot: the pinch pot basics
In this handbuilding lesson, I’ll demonstrate how to make a pinch pot. As the name suggests, a pinch pot is created by pinching the clay. It’s important to keep turning the piece as you work to ensure it becomes nice and even. I’ll guide you through the basics of this essential handbuilding technique.
