Although both projects on this video deal with pottery made in two pieces, the first project deals primarily with aesthetics as various shapes are considered in creating different styles of goblets. The second project is more concerned with technique, as large pots are created in two or more pieces as a means of creating larger and larger pieces.

In this latest project, McCreight has designed five beads to illustrate five entirely separate ways to work with Precious Metal Clay. "This is a hybrid," McCreight says. "It is not a project tape, but it doesn't limit itself to technique either. In fact, you can have it both ways. People who want projects can make these beads, but people who want technique will find that the information applies to anything you make with metal clay." DVD, 70 minutes
