Arrange the sentences into the correct order.
Put the sentences in the correct order:
- Only after this initial firing can glaze be applied and the pot returned to the kiln for the final firing that gives it color and shine.
- The trimmed piece is then left to dry completely before its first firing in the kiln, which hardens the clay into a durable ceramic form.
- After the piece has dried to a leather-hard state, the potter trims away excess clay from the base to achieve a clean, even foot.
- Once the clay is evenly consistent, it is centered on the spinning wheel and drawn upward with wet hands to form the walls of the vessel.
- Before a lump of clay can be shaped on the wheel, a potter must knead it thoroughly in a process known as wedging, which removes trapped air pockets.
