All right, so you want to get the proper amount of clay. These bowls are going to be maybe
this big or so. So I like that amount of clay. So you get it you establish the bottom. All
right see? Then you make it flat and you want to center it obviously and then go down. My
pinkies are at the bottom of this pot here or the bottom of this bowl their letting my
thumbs know how far to go down. So that's about as far as I want to down. I'm going
to put it out and I'm going to flatten the bottom and then I'm going to establish the
side walls. There we go. Now I'm ready to compress the bottom.
