If you're one of the growing number of pottery enthusiasts around the country, you'll love this five-part workshop, DIY Pottery. Host and master potter Bill Van Gilder shows the techniques used to make a variety of ceramics projects, from frame-molded, hand-built plates to deep-walled baking dishes turned on the potter's wheel. He discusses and demonstrates finishing, glazing and firing the projects in a kiln. He also tells how to set up a pottery studio, find texture tools in the kitchen drawer and how to shop for pottery.
