Take your skills—and your work—to the next level.
Mastering the Potter's Wheel starts with an
introduction to wheel-throwing, from centering to creating the basic forms. What pushes this book beyond the competition, however, are the techniques offered in the chapters that follow. From a variety of methods for throwing large objects such as

alterations,
darting, and
paddling, this book offers potters
a world of possibilities.
