Make a procedural pottery system in Blender – flexible and easy to adjust. This is useful for creating lots of different shapes of pots, vases, cups and mugs 🍶

*What’s this about?*
In this tutorial for CG Cookie, Chris Bailey ( @CBaileyFilm ) shows you how to use geometry nodes to create a procedural pottery system…without getting your hands dirty.
