This week has been making plates week by slab building, rather than wheel throwing. I like this technique for making asymmetrical plate designs, textured surfaces and altered rims; more modern plate designs, that are a bit more fun. However, they take an age to dry and are really fussy about their drying conditions - if they aren't dried exactly evenly they tend to warp much more than wheel thrown plates, and nobody wants to eat off of a wobbly rocking plate (at least I assume you don't - but I could be wrong)
