what is choking?

secrets of making a taller cylinder for a cup or vase --

Start with and keep a small but distinct base

choke between pulls to get a tall cylinder

Do NOT let it get wide - You CANNOT make something narrow again once it's gotten wide -- BUT you can make something wide later....  lets watch the demos

remember if you make a cup, make the cylinder day one, pull the handle day two, foot then attach the handle. Handles tomorrow. :)
