Later on I’m here finishing off these eggs, and burnishing them a little.
Best to get rid of throwing rings before burnishing.
“Keep practicing”

Nice results! Could you also throw the egg, with the inside bottom, the profile you're looking for. When dry enough, flip it over in a chuck and trim the bottom to shape? Just curious. It is more steps though, doing it this way. 🤔. Your's is probably quicker.
I don't enjoy the Vertical formatt ... I'd like to see a return to Horizontal/Normal ...... cheers
These clips I’m making using my iPad and it does make it easier to upload more directly to UA-cam.
I can prop up my ipad in the vertical position better than the landscape format.
Some people say they like this format others do not ! Difficult to please all for sure.
Thanks, Simon! Love the eggs and whistling!
Will we see you glazing and decorating it?
Nothing like the taste of gritty clay … so satisfying 😊
Does the pin hole need to stay open for the firing ?
Please show the end result as well!
Cool
I managed to throw one after several attempts - very useful to see how you finished it off. How will you fire it? WOn't it stick to the kiln shelf if you're spraying it with wood ash?
Hi Mike..I could fire it but only sprayed with wood ash. Actually I may pit fire these so they come out black and shiny? We’ll see ?
I’ve just thrown 6 eggs, you inspired me 😊 that little bit of clay really finishes it off, so thank you for that Simon
Hello Simon! Do your 'donkey work'!! Haaa ha, keep practicing!❤
