- In this video I show my students how to trim a basic thrown bowl on the Giffin Grip. I discuss proper foot placement and the rounded form a bowl should take.

I am a public high school ceramics teacher at William Mason High School in Mason, Ohio. (Mason is currently the largest high school in Ohio!) As a potter, I have been working in clay for over 30 years, and I have been teaching for over 28 years, the past 20 have been specifically teaching high school ceramics. I love what I do! I have my own studio in my home basement, where I work on my personal pottery for my Etsy site; www.etsy.com/s...
I started my UA-cam channel a few years ago, to make videos to help my students if they are absent and miss a demo, or if they would like to explore more advanced techniques independently. I have been amazed to reach such a wider audience than my own students!
Please subscribe to my channel if you would like to receive channel updates, or would like to learn more about clay and studio processes!

best explanation on where the foot goes and how to make it I've seen. Thank you.
Thanks for the kind words!
that looks dangerous
Not at all! The Giffen Grip is a really safe tool! I absolutely LOVE mine! It is so similar to using the lugs when holding- it isn't like you get your fingers caught in it or anything! And, the trim tool I use is nothing that can cut you! Remember your clay is just leatherhard and cuts with nearly no resistance!
OK Karan,I'll take your word for it. Just keep your fingers out of those loops. By the way, great videos :)
