- Have the wheel speed halfway
- With your left hand palm up use your middle finger and fourth finger together
- With your right hand place your middle finger, fourth finger, and thumb together with your palm facing you
- slide your thumb back a little bit
- Start from the bottom with your left hand inside the piece and your right hand on the outside
- Slowly pull up with your left hand inside and your right hand on the outside pulling up together
- Your fingers would be touching if the clay was not inbetween
- Lightly squeeze a little bit of clay and pull that clay slowly up using even pressure all the way upp
- You should be exerting more pressure on your right hand, due to centrifugal force, and pulling the wall straight up
- Collar the clay in so that the walls are straight if you were unable to do so while pulling
- Repeat this about 5 times or until you get the required height you want
- Then start shaping the piece by slowly pulling the clay outwards using centrifugal force to your advantage
