Assembled by 2.00pm at the Building Materials Unit, Chelanur the students were introduced to the staff members and the nitty gritty of cottage industries. The students were briefed about the process and refining of clay, the quantitative measures, the intricacies involved in pottery making. They were also explained about how attractive design can be incorporated and colored by using acrylic medium.

I imagined it to be easy process but when I tried it, I understood how much skill is required. Comparing the real tools and the software tools I found no difference in usage except one being realistic and the other computerized. The visit was worth attending.
