Throwing A Taller, Better Cylinder 

Thank you, thank you, thank you. I've been throwing for about 3 years and have never been satisfied with my height results. This video has explained to me where I need to improve. I knew about collaring, but thought it was just for shaping. Whole new ballgame! Thanks again. Fritzi, Orange County CA

Thanks Beth! I never get tired of watching people throw. This is a great demonstration of collaring to get height. It’s so important to get those basics ingrained in our grey matter and muscle memory.

I have watched HUNDREDS of videos. Just started pottery 15 weeks ago. Thank You! Thank You! 😊Thank You! For you teaching style

Great video. Really like your teaching style. Thanks for taking the time to share with us.

Headed to watch all the rest of you videos now.

Best name for pottery channel!

Awesome thank u

Very good instruction! Thanks.

Your videos are super Beth. Well done and very informative. I sure do miss Making pottery.

Thanks ! I haven't seen this technique for getting taller cylinders so I'm going to try it!! I'm fairly new to pottery making but still can't throw a 6" cylinder for a mug. I'm excited!!

Great vid......I'm a newbie thrower (10th week typically once a week ) and have just started venturing into cylinders I find that when I try to throw for height, by the time I get towards the top the clay drys out and gets to gritty to fininsh the pull any suggestions? Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us all
