Produced and directed by Jim Williams, Amberwood Video Production, Lake Ridge, Virginia.

Filmed at Manassas Clay in Manassas, Virginia.

Here are some of the highlights from the video:

Jane introduces her video by describing the Kemper RB-5 rib she likes to use.

In her video, Jane explains and demonstrates techniques for throwing and trimming bowls with 2, 4, and finally 10 pounds of clay.

Jane centers 4 pounds of clay for the medium sized bowl.

If you think “no way I could ever center 10 pounds of clay”, then you have got to see Jane’s trick for centering twice what you thought you could!

Jane demonstrates trimming the foot of the 10 pound bowl.

Jane uses different tricks and techniques for each bowl. You will see in detail what you are working for and how to get it.
