Wheel

I have been working on the wheel every class since we were assigned to it, so a couple of weeks.  I've gotten the hang of it better in the past couple of days.  The skills are still a little shaky to put all together, but individually they are coming along.  After many frustrating attempts, I finally achieved my 6 inch cylinder last class, so the wheel is going pretty well.  My only concern is that my ability to center is still inconsistent and varies day to day, which affects how well I can bring up the clay.  I hope these skills will help me with future wheel projects that are more complicated.
