Attaching a Handle on a Thrown Mug or Cup

[@morningbrightblue]

You explain yourself very well. Thank you so much for making and posting this video. Your students are lucky to have you!

[@milliebaek5350]

I found all of your videos and saved in my file. I cannot wait to see your next up loaded video. Thank you Karen!

Amazing videos! These help me so much as a beginning pottery teacher.I am sure you have come up with a name for that tool by now... but I call it the "welding tool" in my classroom. :)

[@KaransPotsAndGlass]

Lol! That's a great name! One of my coworkers calls it the "wencil"... that cracks me up! Like a pencil shape... but all wood! ;-) I literally STILL call it the pointy wooden tool that sort of looks like a pencil though! How boring! ;-)

Good moorning teacher, thank you to show how to do the the finger rest. I'm not sure is the right name. And also could you please tell the name of the running table? Is elettric? Thankyou

[@Kris-gf7ur]

These videos are so great - ! Thanks!

[@milliebaek5350]

I love to watch your videos and learning a lot. You are an exceptional teacher! Please let me know how to find all of your up loaded videos. Thank you so much.

Hi Millie- Just go to my youtube station... KaransPotsAndGlass... and go to the tab that says videos... and you'll find all my uploaded videos! Let me know if you can't find them! :-) Karan

This is an awesome technique, going to give it a shot tomorrow!!!

[@KaransPotsAndGlass]

Oh, yay! You'll have to let me know how it went! :-)

[@btmcscot5781]

KaransPotsAndGlass I tried this once with one of my mugs and it didn't really come out the way I wanted. I think I'm figuring out that for me with pottery, I have to use new techniques at least 3 times to see if I want to do it again. So . . . we'll see.

[@KaransPotsAndGlass]

Keep at it! My students get it eventually- but it takes many practice mugs to really get the feel for it! :-) Best of luck!!!

[@ReginaClarkCSP]

so helpful Thank you!

[@CaptMike]

What is the tool you used to blend the handle called?

[@KaransPotsAndGlass]

Hi Mike! It is the Kemper WT-12 wood tool. In the googledoc I don’t think I have a link for it, as I don’t think I’ve found it on Amazon yet!

[@CaptMike]

@@KaransPotsAndGlass Yhanks, I will see what I can find!

[@KaransPotsAndGlass]

Here it is from Axner! www.axner.com/kemperwt12woodenmodelingandsculptingtool.aspx

Very helpful, Thank you!

[@jdhampton82]

Hi Karen, I love the mug that you're holding at :20 in the video. Any chance of buying a couple like that from you? One for me and one for my wife. : )

[@KaransPotsAndGlass]

Hi Jdhampton82! Here is a link to that style of mug in my Etsy store! I have three available right now! :-) www.etsy.com/listing/206787043/faceted-wheel-thrown-and-altered?ref=shop_home_feat_2 That's one of my favorite styles recently! :-)

[@jdhampton82]

KaransPotsAndGlass Awesome, thank you so much. Just ordered two of those mugs and a yarn bowl. My wife crochets a lot and will love the yarn bowl for a Christmas gift. I'm excited, can't wait. Thanks, again.

"Wooden Handle Blender" Tool. You said it on the video. But, then for students, you'll still be describing the way it looks for them to find it in the tool caddy as "the pointy wooden tool that sort of looks like a pencil". Funny.

[@KaransPotsAndGlass]

Ha- true! They seem to find it best when I describe how it looks- rather than what it does! ;-)

[@adipottery]

maybe you could call it the handle horn! (like a shoe horn).. also it kind of looks like it could have been made from animal horn! 😄

[@michelleosborne8951]

Call that tool the blending tool or handle blending tool.
