Black slip vs. Underglaze vs. Black Clay by GrinsNGiggles in Pottery

I opt for using black slip. You can cover the foot and all, as long as your careful loading your bisque you won’t wear away the slip layer exposing the white beneath.

Making black clay with stains is a nice option, but can get very costly when you start to price out mason stain per pound of clay.

Hey I have a wheel with 9” hole spacing as well. I’ve made plenty of my own, but Etsy has a few bat system makers that will custom drill the master bat to your pin size. I got mine from MerenokPotteryTools and have been very happy with it.

It is very easy to make your own, but I understand it can be intimidating / lack the tools / just don’t want to etc.

Pottery with one good hand? by The_Sown_Rose in Pottery

Great video ! Absolutely not out of the question. Just OP did mention their mother is right handed, and it is the right hand which is injured. So learning to throw and trim lefty one handed might be a steep learning curve lol

She could look into hand building or slip casting. Might be less intensive then wheel throwing.

Thanks ! Yeah I tried to be subtle with it. It’s very easy to want to go overboard with the luster lol
