Okay, in my sketch I put two little knobs on the side so, I don't need to make them very big I'm just going to cut off a couple little pieces of clay here and I'm going to score the side where I want to put the knob. And then, I'm just going to ball this up, try and make a square, a square knob, and I'm going to do that on both sides. It's more like a handle or knob, depends on what you want to call it. Then what I'm going to do, is I'm going to score this side and then stick it to the side. Get the shape that I want, then I'm going to come in, just smooth it out. Then I'm going to do the same thing on the opposite side. And then just a little bit more. I'm going to get a rectangle, going to score this side. Once I get the shape that I want, score the backside of this, stick it, I'm actually going to, alright and there are your knobs.
