Create a Bowl with Circlematic Form Finder!
The Circlematic Form Finder Set includes 24 flexible plastic templates that can be reused over and over again and wiped clean. They are helpful for learning about how conical forms are developed from cutting sections out of circles. You can think of the various parts as building blocks for discovering forms.
In this video, we will be demonstrating how to create a bowl form with the Circlematic Form Finder. Designed by studio potter and teacher, Sandi Pierantozzi, the Circlematic was developed as a way to explore forms through hand building.
Lyla chose template F to create a nice size cereal bowl. She cut the shape with a sharp knife held at a 90 degree angle to the template. Using a circle cutter she cut the bottom for the bowl.
After the template shape has been joined together and the bottom has been scored and slipped on, Lyla creates an outward curve in her bowl using her hand and a silicon rib as her banding wheel turns slowly.

Watch the eight minute video for the full step-by-step process with lots of handbuilding tips!
