RE: Traditional Ceramic Methods in Making Earthenware, Stoneware and Porcelain
I took a ceramics class once, and we divided our work with clay into throwing and handbuilding as the two main methods. I have seen some amazing pots made from pieces of clay cut from a rolled out slab. I was also told that kneading the clay properly could increase the strength of the final product.
Kneading homogenize your plastic mass :)
