You don't need a lot of fancy equipment to hand-build pottery.
To make these pots I primarily used my hands, plus some common household items:
- a card table covered with an old linen bedsheet:
as a work area - some fishing line:
to cut off pieces of clay to use - a gas barbeque, leaves, molasses:
to fire the bowl - coke can:
to roll up clay into a cylinder for the mug - a shishkebob skewer and a Bic pen:
to create stamps to make the coasters and mug - a rolling pin and a small knife:
roll out slabs of clay and cut shapes - However, I'm still in need of a kiln, as you can see from the number of unfired pots.
