There are many techniques in use for throwing ceramic containers, although this is a typical procedure: a round, moist lump of clay body is thrown down onto the wheel head or a bat attached to it. The lump is made even and forced to the centre of the wheel by applying pressure with the hands. The thrower finds the center of the clay by moving a thumb across the lump until no more friction is felt. 3, record 4, English, - thrower
