How do I make coils?

For Coiling

You will need some slip for building, to make this, dry some clay, the same as the body, crush it and add water to a cream consistency.

You will also need:
A paddle-pop stick
A plastic fork
Old toothbrush
And a wide bladed knife (The old bone handled bread and butter knives are perfect).
You may also need a cardboard box from which you can cut a template. See complete coiling tips.
