Easy Tips On Making This Funky Hexagon Shaped Bowl

Cut away from the clay body in one continuous and straight motion. Don’t go stopping half way or try to change directions midway, you can do this is you have some experience but if its your fist time trying then take it a step at a time 

Pay special attention to the thickness of the clay. You want the clay walls to be a little thicker than usual, as you’ll be cutting into it later on if you make the walls too thin and the base to thick you risk the pot cracking, so try and have the base and the walls and even thickness when you have a finished product.

Also have fun when you are making shapes like this you don’t necessarily have to make a hexagon shape like I have in this video. You can make whatever shape or cut away whatever piece you want on your pot as long as you keep in mind your form and how the piece will dry, you should not have a problem and have fun!!

When it gets into the lever hard stage, this is a good time to trim the base and clean up the outside walls, making sure not to use a rough sponge but a smooth sponge, so you do not remove too much clay from the outside and lose the effect that this gives you

Once again hope you enjoyed this post and as always Happy Potting!!! 🥳🥳
