  • Wheel and Hand Building (Beginner and Intermediate)

    This class was great. The instructor Jake was fun and always open to questions. We learned how to throw on the wheel, handbuild, trim, glaze. If you're a beginner like I was, you need to be very patient. Most of my objects came out as small bowls, even if I was aiming for larger dishes or mugs. I took the class on Saturdays from 12-2, which I highly recommend because there are open studio hours from 2 to 7 on weekends, so you can stay as long as you want after class to work on your projects. This was nice for me because I didn't feel pressure to come in on week nights after work. Choplet is very accomodating if you need to miss a class, and they send very organized and friendly emails about fees, fire schedules, etc. They also give you plenty of the clay at the beginning of the session- I had to scramble towards the end to use mine up.
