Just-A-Stick Posted Tuesday at 10:40 PM Report Share Posted Tuesday at 10:40 PM Hello, I'm Stick! I am getting into pottery for a year-long school project, and can probably use whatever advice/information you'd like to share! My knowledge is very limited as far as terms and such go, but I took a 6 week beginner class, so I sort of know what I'm doing. Any help is appreciated! So far I have worked with 153 clay only, and no more than 4 lbs worth. ❤️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Min Posted Wednesday at 06:05 AM Report Share Posted Wednesday at 06:05 AM Hi Stick and welcome to the forum. I think you need to be a bit more specific in what help you are asking for. Ceramics is a huge field so it’s hard for us to answer when we don’t know what your question is. Pres 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
