I wet my bats so my piece doesn't dry on the bottom and fly off. I find my clay sticks fine.

you are not really meant to wet the board because the clay doesn't stick to the board as well, but its your choice, you also need to imagine the pot is bigger then it is when you are pulling up otherwise you end up with a bad rim.

My bats are home-made from 3/4 particle board. These were scraps from a cabinet shop. The most important thing about using bats is to make a wire cut soon after throwing within 1 hour. Then cut again a few times as the pieces set up. This along with compressing the bottom during throwing will prevent the dreaded bottom cracks as they dry. Tony

What is your bat made of? All the bats I've seen are flexible. Also, since I am the epitome of the "starving artist," I wondered if I can create the throwing bats out of various other things that are not necessarily expensive materials...thanks for the video--it was quite helpful.
