How to Make a Hexagonal Wall Pocket with an Extruder Daryl E Baird

There's a lot more to the extruder than making strap handles. With a multitude of commercial dies or custom homemade dies, the only limit is the imagination.  Extruders can produce hollow tubes and coils for building vessel walls, uniform ribbons and slabs for hand-building, feet and flanges for lidded forms, and so much more!

In today's post, an excerpt from his DVD The Extruder Video, Daryl Baird demonstrates how he uses a commercial hexagonal die to make a neat wall pocket vase.- Jennifer Poellot Harnetty, editor
