  • Hello everyone! in this video I show how to make the clay structure of a cup using the slab building technique (To be able to use it, you must fire it... and glaze it)
    This is one of the techniques that I enjoy the most and the one that I find most useful
    (the cup is 8 cm high and its walls are 6 mm thick. The circle that I cut for the base has a diameter of 6 cm)
    Materials used in this video:
    -White low fire clay (1040°)
    -Slip
    -Water
    -Sponge
    -Cardboard
    -Wooden rolling pin
    -6 mm/8 mm thick rods
    -Rib
    -Needle tool
    -Cutter
    -Rule
    -Brushes
    -Spatula
    -Plastic letters
    ____
    Music:

    *Some general answers:*
    -I got the plastic letters at a bakery supply store, originally they are to write on cookies
    -The liquid clay is called slip, and it is made of clay + water
    - In this video I only show how to make the structure of the cup, in order to drink from it... it must be fired and glazed. Soon I will make a video showing in detail the glaze process!

      I love this mug! I love it so much I would like to have one just like this… It is a shame I cannot use it or drink from it the way it is as this is the way I like it. Marina, do you have an Insta account or somewhere we can chat? I’d love to have a word or two with you. 🥰
