  2. The speed at which they centered their pot is ungodly. I guess it is their profession, but it still makes me mad.

  3. The settling process consists of moving the clay to several differnt pools with each pool having a different purpose. I would so not be in a ceramics class if we had to do all of this. -Abbie Burns

  5. I think that its really cool how so long ago they figured out how to create a kiln that was able to make the vases change colors by increasing and decreasing the oxygen amounts. -Bryce Floyd

  6. I thought it was very neat how they would make their own clay and how when they would put designs on the clay it would come out black

  7. it's hard to imagine having to go through that much effort to make the clay when all we have to do is get it out of the bag. And the amount that they had to make and wedge at the same time is insane.
