But the desire to improve and work to achieve an ideal shape of the vessel collected led to the use use the potter's lathe range, which stretches from a piece of raw clay subordinate to the principle of symmetry of the object. Subsequent changes in pottery of the machine for the transition from the rotation range of hand to foot drive, and then to the electromechanical motion. It works preserved to this day.

The liquid clay mass – slurry is poured into a form that absorbs moisture with plaster, the walls of the form as it is printed next vessel. Excess slip is poured in advance, leaving only a small layer of the masses. The resulting intermediate product is additional second jobs: the attachment of the handle and the spout if it is tea, trimming seams from the casting, decorating scratching, smoothing the surface – polishing, etc.
