                                                               working over the entire surface with a surform.

         When you’re happy with the overall size, refi ne the
        shape by scoring the outline shape of the shell with a
        pin. Drawing in the shape like this allows you to make
        corrections before actually cutting the clay.

         When you have the right shape, cut along the scored
        line and remove the excess clay.
         If necessary, you can repeat this until you’re happy with
        the shape.
