If your pots keep collapsing, getting too heavy at the bottom, or just won’t scale up, this technique will change everything. In this video, I’ll show you how to throw two separate sections, stack them, and blend them into one seamless form. This method lets you create taller, thinner, and more controlled pieces without the stress of pulling one large chunk of clay. This is a game-changer if you want to start making larger, more advanced pottery forms with confidence. ▬ Contents of this video ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ 0:00 – Intro: Struggling with Taller Forms? 0:40 – Clay Prep (No Wedging Method + Weight Tips) 1:57 – Centering, Pulling, Shaping 8:32 – Attachment Options (Flat, Angle, Trench) 9:36 – Preparing the Rim for Stacking 13:16 – Throwing the Top Section 20:29 – Scoring & Preparing for Attachment 21:29 – Drying the Base (Torch Tip) 22:38 – Attaching, Blending, and Removing Bat 24:55 – Opening the Form After Attachment 26:00 – Compressing & Strengthening the Seam 27:04 – Fixing Wobble & Re-Centering 29:03 – Refining the Overall Form 31:43 – Preventing Collapse on Thin Walls 34:17 – Final Rim Refinement 35:24 – Finished Piece Reveal 36:10 – Outro + Member Shoutouts #pottery #ceramics #clay #potterywheel #wheelthrowing #potterytutorial #clayart #clayvideos #ceramicvideos #handmade
