Pottery ppl I need your help?

I want handmade pottery wheel without I have it in high school and loved it, but I know not what I used clay. I just know it was a gray color and the way we used it, we rolled it into a snake shape and vases made with him. Each Idea on what clay, clay, or what I should be made for the production of daily use ceramics?

There are different types of "earthen" sound (from the Earth / Dirt / etc). I assume you were using regular old earthen clay, but it can dry in the air after forming, unless your teacher they fired in an oven – with or without glaze (high-temperature kilns are earthen clay is much stronger than it would make only dried in air). You can buy the clay in stores, or in art supply stores, and sometimes even in craft stores (and Mexican pottery clay is the same used in craft stores but only in terracotta, I think). What were you doing before "thrown" as a "coil pot" instead of a pot, if you smoothed the coils or not http://www.google.com/search?q=how+to+pot+clay+coil http:// www.google.com/images?q=how+ to + coil + pot + sound and you can also boxes and other shapes with "slab" construction: http://www.google.com/images?q = how + to + + slab clay http://www.google.com/search?q=how + to + drive + sound, you can usually get your items on clay loam clay burned and shops often in art departments the universities for a fee. And the sound of shops are also classes in which a glaze, etc. You can can also pots, vases, bowls and other Types of vessels from other kinds of "sound" (other air dry clays like Creative Paperclay for example, or polymer clays such as Fimo or Premo / etc, and even 2-part epoxy clays). Some clays will be more expensive volume, so that you make may not be as great with one material or another, and that (or you want to use an anchor or a form) air dry clay must be sealed in order to avoid later damage by moisture. Some clays will be smoother or more, etc. also. If you're ever interested in Ships (miniature to large) with polymer clay, you might want to check out these pages on my website, in particular: http://glassattic.com/polymer/vessels.htm (especially the "hollows" perhaps) http://glassattic.com / polymer / vessels_rock-alum.foil.htm http://glassattic.com/polymer/covering.htm
