Building a Korean wood fired kiln - Full Video!

I had the pleasure of participating in the building of a wood fired kiln in Jeju Island, South Korea. This project was organised by a Korean potter, Insung Hwang @daebuyo6342 (@daebuyo on instagram). It developed into a hybrid kiln with the fire box (front part of the kiln) being made using round clay bricks (bone dried but unfired) called 'mangdangi or mangsengi' (망댕이 or 망생이) - and the rest of...
Traditional Jeju stone kiln firing visit
Переглядів 165Рік тому
Lucky to be in Jeju for a Jeju onggi festival, ‘제주 옹기 굴제’, that included a wood firing in a 12 meter long traditional Jeju stone kiln. I went to watch the end of the 4 day firing. The stoking happens at the side holes (6 holes on each side, so 12 in total) whilst slowly closing the front fire-stoking-hole, as they progressively move from the bottom holes to the top ones. @jejuonggi_com 제주옹기박물관 ...

Transporting ceramic pots the green way! (No.2)
Thanks for sharing, I love the way he made the pots.
This is very fun and challenging. If the rim height is not uniform after adding a coil, should I cut it before adding the next coil? Or try to add a piece to even it out? Or just keep going and even it out at the end after last coil? Thank you for showing this!!
@@minephone8057 thank you for watching! The idea is that you would end up with more less the same height in most points but some parts can be slight lower. I don’t really even up unless it is so different 3cm +, then I may add a bit of clay to level up before the next coil. I also have added clay to the coil, after adding the next coil before thining the walls, when I already feel that some parts of the coil is too thin. This way you have the same consistency of clay. I have done either ways and both have worked. Please try! Thank you!
Whew!
Why use banging technique rather than slab roller?
I don’t have a slab roller and don’t use slabs enough to get one. I also find slab rollers quite cumbersome to use.
Beautiful
Fabulous instructions- do u have a video that shows how the slip glaze turned out?
@@bonniegarson80 hi, I used transparent glaze so it has kept the white colour. Below link will show the finished work. ua-cam.com/video/NwqfmIpD0iU/v-deo.htmlsi=ycVbW1VxHSCs4sB1
Hi Sae!Thanks so much!❤How about when you actually forgot to put underglaze on greenware and its bone dry now😮.is there a chance to put underglaze or the plates will crack?
@@itadakiharu6272 hi, underglaze is not something I use. I just googled and there are ways to use underglaze on bone dry work. You could also use certain underglaze on bisqueware, so worth checking your underglaze. Sorry I cannot help further! Test test test 😃
Hii! How do you dry flat slabs? Do you use fabric underneath the slabs?
@@garimatripathiartist hi, I put a thin layer of fine silica sand when I dry big/heavy slabs. Hope it helps!
are there tradional workshops and kilns?
Bello trabajo
I am curious, how do you stay hopeful for a slab this big and with this thickness? I've been trying to make 3 10x10 slabs for a client for last two months and they're always cracking. How do you stay calm while making something this big? Also, can I use grog instead of silica sand?
Hi! Thank you for watching! It is not easy as you know!!! Is this measurement in cm or inches? A tile? What clay body are you using? As long as it is not porcelain, the size whether in cm or inch should be ok. Yes, grog is fine to use as well. Drying evenly and slowly helps too. The clay I used in this piece is very grog heavy so it can manage the size. I had a lot of problems with porcelain slabs cracking even at 10cm oval shape. Or where there is slightly uneven thickness and the tension will cause a crack!!! My person experience with any other clay body (stoneware and earthenware) has never been an issue with cracked slabs. I am hoping to make a video on slab making so stay tune 😊
I just found your channel and I've been binging all your videos. I'm obsessed! Please make more when you have time!!
@@nikki3996 welcome! Thank you so much for taking time watching them!
Absolutely wonderful!
MARAVILHOSO!!!
I noticed you do not bevel the ends. Do you find your approach better for clean edges?
It depends how you want the pieces to look. Most of my tableware bottoms are all bevelled finished as I want them to look slightly lifted and not to have any sharp edges. Thank you for watching!
Fantastic, thanks for a lovely video
Thanks for watching!
You are so talented! Many thanks. I learned a great deal, especially as a new slab builder. It seems a sharp, thin knife is a very important tool. Mine is quite thick. May I ask what knife you are using? Kind regards.
Thank you! Glad to hear it is helpful. That flat knife is actually a leather worker’s knife. It is thin and has nothing on the knife so can cut deep without any obstacles. Check online?
@@leesaewon I wanted to show you the box I made after watching your tutorial. It is my first attempt at a closed shape and only my 2nd slab built piece...a bit rough, but I loved making it! Thank you. Alas, I cannot seem to figure out how to add a few pics...
@@amyharry3071 great! It took me about the third box to look good. My email is saewon.sofia.lee@gmail.com Do drop me an email with photos!
Looks like my pie crusts.😅
This is amazing and it makes me glad that youtube exists. I started using a kick wheel and generally separated the kicking and pulling, but you learn something new all the time! Thank you so much for sharing your skill with the world.
Is there a reason you didn’t wet the rim of the pot before attaching the new coil this time?
The rim just before was wet enough so it didn’t need more water. I remember making this video in the winter. So you have to make a judgement to wet the rim or not before the next coil. Thank you for watching!
@@leesaewonthank you!
Thank you for this video! I don't really understand what you're doing from 13:30 - 15:00, could you explain the purpose of this technique please?
Thank you for watching. It is to compress the coil and when I thin the coil the top(rim) will not be flapping, so the rim will stay in shape.
Your poor hands with all that grog! Looks amazing, though!
At least, I’m not throwing! Thanks for watching
J'aurais bien aimé pouvoir regarder, malheureusement, il n'y a pas de traduction en français, et j'en suis vraiment désolée
Es ist eine Freude, ihnen bei der Arbeit zuzuschauen. 😍👏
I want that Give your contact no
I would use stationary stool for throwing. Possibly use wheeled stool for hand built work.
이런책들이 필요한데 전통도자서적류 소개좀 부탁드립니다 제발😅

Superb! Welldone
Have you tried keeping the paddle in the same position (and dropping it) whilst turning the wheel with your other hand?
You could do it either way I guess :)
Умничка спасибо за мастеркласс❤
This is a great video. Nicely informative. I like what appears to be your sleeve covers.
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it.
This is a GREAT video. Very well done, with important details. Great that you do this in real time, and with no annoying music in the background. Simply excellent and I will check out the link you offered in the comments to see the finished piece! I'm inspired!! Thank you!!!
Thanks so much ! Glad you enjoyed it.
Very cool!
Awesome video ❤
Wow. I love your work. The vases are beautiful. May I ask at what temperature or cone you fire them to? Thank you. I'm a potter who is currently experimenting with terracotta and mixed body clay at both high and earthenware temperatures :)
Hello, thanks so much! They were fired at 1240 degrees, oxidisation. Good luck with experimenting!
Thank you so much. I'm assuming you mean celsius, not Fahrenheit. You've got me so interested in Korean ceramics - I want to go and see them in person! @@leesaewon
@@lorishaul Yes, it is in celcius. I rediscovered Korean ceramics in the UK and it is very rich! Have a look at my old video about Icheon (one of the biggest ceramic hub in Korea). Enjoy it! ua-cam.com/video/7_QDIMiLw-Q/v-deo.htmlsi=5-cLpJtt5O2WbUQF
hello ! thank you very much for this video ! may i ask what type of clay are you using ?
The clay is called Craft Crank, a type of stoneware from the UK. Thanks for watching!

Thank you for watching!
선생님 무게가 너무 나가지않나요? 코일두께가 너무 두꺼워서 실제사용하시는지 장식용인지 활용도가 궁금합니다^^ 큰기물일경우 다 건조후 갈라져서 이젠 큰기물도전이 너무 겁이납니다 갈라지진 않았는지요?
@@화향-g8d 영상을 더 보시면 코일을 벽으로 얇게 올리기 때문에 올리는 코일이 벽의 두께가 아님니다. 최종 작업한 벽은 한 0.8mm 정도에요. 장식겸 발 수툴로 잘 나오면 사용할겁니다. 감사합니다!
When I roll out a slab, I start with a block of clay and hit it with a rolling pin to get down to the depth I need, usually one fourth inch. I live in New Mexico, USA. I have never seen the tool you use to get to your slab depth. I would be so grateful if you could tell me the name of the tool you use, and where I might purchase one. This tool seems, to me, to be so immediate and in touch with the clay. You are such an inspiration! Thank you!!!
Thank you for watching! That is an Onggi making tool which I have used in my own way. It is a tool used to thin the walls of jars from the inside. Please see below clip for its original usage. ua-cam.com/video/YzAD10u4DOY/v-deo.htmlsi=blIDBBh0lIRbWYY4 I made this tool with the Onggi master in the video above. I think it can be bought at Korean pottery suppliers in korea (most Onggi makers make their own) but not sure in the US. If you know, Adam Fields (US potter who learnt Onggi in Korea), he might be able to direct you better. Thank you!!
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🌟🌟🌟👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🇧🇷
Thank so much for this video I take a ceramics class in high school and this video is very helpful since we’re making a slab box
Thank you for watching and glad to hear it is helpful!!
No image of the fired work? Ah, so disappointing after watch the process.
You can see the result in the below video! Thanks for watching. ua-cam.com/video/NwqfmIpD0iU/v-deo.html
With the multitude of channels on UA-cam, I am delighted when I somehow come upon one that captures and holds my attention. Your calm demeanor, patience, and artistic skill are as beautiful as your results. I admire the brushes you used in this video. Could you tell me where I could purchase them? Thank you for the time and effort it must have taken to film and edit this process.
Thank you so much for your kind comment! The brush was in the kintsugi kit. I think any fine brush with a little bit of tension should work. The bristles part of the brush about 1cm long.
What is the clay tho? Or am i jus suppose to know? If u know u know
Haha. It's called Craft Crank bought from Pot Clays (a UK based supplier)
Will the cylinder inside not blow as you didnt put an air hole in it?
Hello, Please see my replies below on this very question.
Love the beautiful community. Great artists. Buildings and coffee shops 💕
바닥자를때 먼저 물래를 최대속도로 돌리고 한점에 대서 잘라야 합니다. 발로 돌리며 칼을 대면 흔들려서 안됩니다. 바닥에서 1미리만 틀어져도 위에서는 엄청 흔들리게 됩니다..매우 중요합니다.
Dzięki za lustro!
nice
This was such a wonderful and informative video, thanks for sharing!
So pleased to hear! Thanks for watching.
