Struggling to center the clay on the wheel?
Potter's Centering Aid, an innovative solution to a common problem faced by potters including people with disabilities, children, novice or amateur potters alike.
One of the fundamental challenges in pottery is centering the clay on the wheel during the throwing process. Our centering aid streamlines this process, saving valuable time and frustration.
With traditional methods, potters can spend many minutes or even longer trying to achieve the perfect center. This tool changes that. Simply introduce the tool to the uncentered lump of clay and apply a small amount of pressure. Within seconds, you'll have a perfectly centered mound of clay, ready for the next stage in the process, 'opening up' which will be a lot easier and so it is with each stage that follows.
While our centering aid is not a replacement for poorly prepared clay, it serves as an invaluable teaching tool. It reinforces the essential principle of forming the lump of clay into the correct shape with your hands and helps potters grasp this technique more effectively. In cases where the clay hasn't been properly prepared, coning up the lump either before or after using the tool may be necessary, although coning up is generally not required for well prepared clay.
Say goodbye to the frustration of struggling to center clay and hello to effortless precision with our Potter's Centering Aid. Experience the joy of pottery without the hassle, and focus on unleashing your creativity with confidence.
