Old timers on the MSATClayArt list know these early one tile tutes. On one tile all the major steps of doing a technique can be seen.

Going clockwise from the upper left corner: The colors and their mixes. Light mixes on pearl and dark mixes on silver. Roll like a sloppy sushi. Twist the rolls like there's no tomorrow. Run those twisted logs through a press so the lines point down to the roller. Take the light and dark sheets and put them together and press again. One side is light and the other side is dark. Cut out circles, crimp one bit of the edge and bowl out the rest with the light on the inside. Poke holes and you got mini abalone. It's so easy it should be illegal.
