How to Build a Flared Round Pot with Clay Slabs – No Wheel Needed | Cobra Pot #1

#pottery #handbuiltceramics #clayslabs In this video, I build a flared round pot using only clay slabs — no wheel involved. This is the first part of the “Cobra Pot” project, focused on the technical side of slab construction. I’ll show you how to build a clean, strong pot from a simple cone-based template, with tips on handling groggy clay, achieving smooth joints, and working upside down to control deformation. The next video will cover the artistic part — sculpting the feet. •• SUPPORT THE CHANNEL •• Support me by becoming a Patreon member: 👉 https://bit.ly/3G9yOtf (Patreon takes 8% commission.)
