I just ordered a pottery wheel. I’ve been slab building for about a year now but zero experience with throwing on a wheel.
It seems like I’ll need to use a different clay body for the wheel that what I’m using now for slab building.
Internet research suggests that porcelain can be good for throwing due to its high plasticity. So, what are the advantages and disadvantages of using porcelain for bonsai pots? Would I be better off with a stoneware with minimal grog?
Would love to hear anyone’s opinions. Would be very thankful if @NaoTK @Pitoon @penumbra have time to weigh in on this, or anyone else!
