How to Trim and Burnish a Bowl - Matt Horne Crystalline Workshop 

+Chris Amar Hi Chris, I use the back of a spoon for burnishing.

+Matthornepottery Ahh, thanks for that. It certainly does a great job. I've seen in some of his videos, Hsin Chuen Lin uses a polished rock to burnish his pieces after trimming, but the spoon seems to cover a larger area quicker, and an equally good job. Matt, I have to say that I'm happy I've found your RU-vid channel. You do amazing work, and I thank you for sharing your expertise with us. When you're in the States would you consider doing any other art centres beyond Dunedin Florida?

The heat from the torch dries the clay a bit, making it easier to maintain the form. Other times, heat can be applied to dry the clay to get a very cool crackled texture on the outside.

This was a blend of porcelain and stoneware. I normally use porcelain.

磁土でそこまでやれるのは素晴らしい。処で、肝心な箇所でバーナーで炙る裏技感動的です。次回私も試みてみます。因みに轆轤は左回転ですが日本で修行はししていないのでしょうか？
