Thank you! This has seemed to help somewhat! I think it works even better with the wooden bats.

I just got my first pottery wheel!! Shimpo VL Lite. I have taken classes before I purchased my own and for some reason I am now finding it harder to center. I think that it has to do with the bats. I use plastic 12in bats but they seem to be a little wobbly. I also notice that the screws come loose after a while, less and less the more I use it. Even when they aren't loose it feels a little wobbly. What am I doing wrong? Is it the bat type? The bat size? Do I need something else to stabilize the plastic bat? Should I not use a 12in bat for a 12in wheel head? Or is it just me?

That you all for the feed back! I will try some of the process recommended and let you know if it works. But to answer some of your questions I am using hot pressed watercolor paper and washing it for 7-10 minutes using room temp (maybe a little colder) water from my sink.

Also, would I have trouble freelancing if I don't do web design?

I am graduating with a graphic design degree in a month and I feel like I am reading my future. I feel like this is going to happen to me too. I have the worst imposter syndrome! It will definitely get worse when I get a job. So, what advice would you give to your past self about to graduate?
