How to Remove Pots from the Potter's Wheel

Hi I'm Betty Ingham and the business that my husband and I represent in our workshop is called The Hairy Potters and I'm speaking on behalf of Expert Village. I'm going to cut it off with a wire and then I'm going to take it off with a little tool that we have like this and I will usually set them over here and I have 4 or 5. Then I need to get up and take a break from my old back so I will take 3-4 over and put them in our drying racks. Some people wonder how much clay we go through a day well when my husband is home and where working he makes the big things and I make the smaller things we can go through 300-400 pounds of clay a day. When we buy clay we usually buy at least 1-2 tons because it is cheaper if you buy a ton of clay. So we do go through a lot of clay per year.
