Throwing Successfully a Hand Made Pottery Plate on Wheels
Invariably the handmade pottery plates are made using the pottery wheel. However, the work is not as simple as it sounds to be. Throwing a handmade pottery plate on the pottery wheel is a work of art and requires long practice as well as the three "d" of discipline, dedication, and determination on the part of the maker.
As a BeginnerFor the beginner or a person who is a non-potter, plates might look to be the easiest of the things to make. But in reality it is an altogether different proposition. Floor of the plate are usually large in comparison to the rims and therefore there would be very strong possibilities of developing S-cracks. Thus it is not the easiest of the task throwing plates to the wheels and it requires expertise and skill development on the part of the intending potter in accomplishment of the task.
Components of PlatesEach of the plates in handmade pottery system would require about a pound or two of clay. Sometimes the maker may like to use more for throwing to the wheels so that a thicker floor can be developed. On turn it will allow one to trim out the foot ring once the plate gets harder.
Tools for Making PlatesPotter plates are made using tools like needles, some pieces of chamois, wooden tool for trimming the products, sponge, large loop tool, as well as some rubber or wooden ribs.
Plates for FoodsPlates can be used for multiple purposes but major use of them is for serving foods. Sometimes they may be decorative plates only but when they are used for serving food, the manufacturer must use at list mid range or the high firing clay including glazes. One has to ensure that the plates so manufactured are safe for serving food and the components used for glaze are not harmful to health. In addition the plate should have a gloss surface as well.
Making Plate SetsAt times the manufacturer may be entrusted with the task of making plate sets instead of standalone plates. In such cases the maker must make sure that he or she is using enough clay to make the set complete or according to the required numbers.
When the maker is getting ready to throw the plates as part of handmade pottery, he should check up several things like tools, water, slop buckets, and above all; his own fingernails so that he won't have to get up time and again from in front of the wheel.

How can I set a trapdoor off by pressure plate or button mechanism with a reset function?
I'm wondering how I can build a trapdoor with a button or pressure plate that activates it, and as your release pressure on the button/pressure plate, the trapdoor resets to its original state.
Please give ideas or direct me to a website that can help me.
I assume your a madman in a castle setting a trap for the various heroes and heroines that might drop by. The button implies a solenoid to open a latch that keeps the trap door closed when you walk over it to get your morning coffee. The pressure plate implies some sort of mechanical linkage to open the latch. In either case you'll use the weight of the victim to open the trap door. Suggest you use mattress or chute to keep from killing the victim. A simple counterweight maybe via cable and pulley
should be set to reclose the door and latch it. Sand bags are useful because you can easily change the weight until the mechanism works to close door and latch, but not hold the door closed when a heroines stands on it.
