- This video is a tutorial on how to throw a two piece altered square pot from a thrown wall and thrown disk. I put throwing rings in the disk for more visual interest!
When leatherhard, I demo attaching the two pieces together and cleaning the joint. I admit, I should have joined it earlier, but time got away from me and I forgot about it until the next day! I happen to be using Standard 225 stoneware (cone 6) for this demo- as that is the clay my students use on the wheel.

I made this video for my Ceramics II, III, and independent studyI students at Mason High School. 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 33 years, over the past 26 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/shop/KaransPotsA...
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!

Love this new video. I have learned so much from you. Am really looking forward to trying this and forming other shapes using this technique. ❤
Another great video! Enjoy all your video's
Thanks so much!
Hello, new subbie here. I’m new to pottery and have been binge watching so many videos. I really enjoy how you teach because it’s very thorough and detailed, plus you use layman’s terms which I appreciate. I have a quick question. What is the material used on the pottery wheel underneath the bat? And the purpose of it? Thanks in advance.
I typically use a bat mate! They are designed to help the bat not to wiggle around!

Thank you! @@KaransPotsAndGlass
Always look forward to your videos, inspiring. Am new to pottery, would you suggest types of clay, underglazes & glazes for making a bird feeder & jewelry dish. Also, would be hand building, what thickness would you advice for rolling?
I've been working exclusively with Standard Raku clay lately (bought too much) and it bugs me to no end that you can't wet sponge it. I've never tried a brush, thanks for the tip! 🤞👍
@KaransPotsAndGlass How hard would it be to create a glazed white ceramic rectangular vessel sink for a bathroom vanity? The only people on youtube creating such sinks use concrete, so I'm guessing it's a challenging process without factory equipment..?
Very challenging- for a rectangular form, typically it would be slip cast for strength, it could be done with slabs, of course, but it would be fairly difficult.
