Lebo Mojo chapeau bas... ;-) you're right

Yout technique is wonderful !!! What a clever idea about the spring ! I knew another way of fluting a piece of clay but I am going to try yours :)

I put a small nail (even a brad) and length of guitar wire in a drill chuck and run the drill slow while holding the wire and with tension feeding it onto the rotating small nail. This produces a tight coil of wire which I then load into an adjustable cheese cutter fron which I have removed the original wire. With this I can better control the depth of the wire cut. By choosing various sized nails, wire guage and stretching the wire 'more-or less', one can further vary facet results. Bill

Thanks Flush, your demos are fantastic! Now if you only had an English Accent, lol... Keep it up. I wondered about that faceting tool...

[@pensandcalls]

Hey, I liked that! Kind of a twist (pardon the pun) on other expansion methods after some surface treatment such as slip. Great!

well done.

Oh my goodness. I couldn't make it past that insane music.
