Making an Easy Clay Slab Tray with Materials You Have at Home!

Coronavirus Quarantine: Video 5- March 20 I will be trying to post simple daily videos for inspiration for my students, and my subscribers to help give us some learning and distraction during this national emergency. Here is a link to the playlist I am adding to: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLj0pNzEmvM_qHHMTkWNXKzUd_0BADQL0a In this video, I show how to make a slab tray using a simple styrofoam tray as a mold, and a corn holder as a tool to cut a footring. This is super simple. I used thickness strips, but one would not need to. I had mentioned another video where I showed drape molding with handles, check out that video here: https://youtu.be/SoyNXUw-Hqc Also, I mention the notched card as a means to clean the edge. That video can be found here: https://youtu.be/DzrRQJ5YE4U Check out the googledoc link below with tools Check out this link to a live Googledoc I continually update with lots of my favorite tools on Amazon using my associate links! (also some non-amazon suggestions on here!) https://docs.google.com/document/d/1XbYPQjjJnHrQG5xyWGMHZkEcZj5N8VnUAbFZdJRrRmU/edit?usp=sharing I am a public high school ceramics teacher at William Mason High School in Mason, Ohio. (Mason is currently the largest high school in Ohio!) As a potter, I have been working in clay for over 30 years, and I have been teaching for over 28 years, the past 20 have been specifically teaching high school ceramics. I love what I do! I have my own studio in my home basement, where I work on my personal pottery for my Etsy site; https://www.etsy.com/shop/KaransPotsAndGlass I started my Youtube channel a few years ago, to make videos to help my students if they are absent and miss a demo, or if they would like to explore more advanced techniques independently. I have been amazed to reach such a wider audience than my own students!
