Fixing a Teapot's Lid
Вставка
- Опубліковано 28 сер 2024
- You’ll have to watch until the end to see the difference grinding the lid makes. This process comes around every few months, after firing a couple of times, once I’ve accumulated enough lidded wares. Then, each has its lid ground in place using Chemico lapping paste, (meant for engine valves), the excess removed, then the whole lot is washed thoroughly in hot soapy water.
Even though I burnish my lids at the leather hard stage to a glassy smooth finish, once reduction fired, there’s always a certain amount of grog/texture, in the clay, that makes itself present again. The clay shrinks around these already fired particles, revealing them, and creating a rough surface, hence the awful noise the lid makes initially.
Equally, if there’s any movement during the firing, this could cause one component to not quite fit with the other. Regardless, I make my lids tight on purpose, this way, once fired they can be ground into place like so, meaning they fit perfectly.
A few notes: I only ever use this paste on bare clay, it never goes on the glaze. I wouldn’t recommend using it with terracotta, or a porous clay body, as the residue can be tricky to remove. When I’m working on a batch of lidded forms, I’ll apply the paste onto one lid, grind it, then take that same paste and spread it onto the next jar, and so on, and so forth. This way one tiny pot of the paste can last an age but it does eventually become less effective.
It’s a satisfying, loud process, best done with headphones on and a good distraction to relieve the monotony.

The sound hurt my soul
fax
My misophonia really hate this shit. 😂😂
Same
I love that sound, what I can't stand are pencil and paper sounds.
Now imagine a fork rubbing a chalkboard
That scrapey teacup sound absolutely obliterates me
i actually kinda like it
@@rei-ayanami-lover??????? huh
@@DaniSC_l1I mean they’re kinda right its not that bad
@@ivorys_ivy I like the unscrappy sound more
My worst enemy is unpolished clay
Satisfying result, but that noise must really grind on you after awhile.
😂
Hehe punny
CAN YOU NOT🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Can you?
I honestly find the sound satisfying
My skin felt like it was carbonated when you polished the lid
Never heard a more accurate description of misophonia
I am glad more people know about misophonia these days lol
Love that, "skin was carbonated" that's perfect!!!! I totally agree... I was stuck, no doubt looking crazy because I really wanted to see what it'll be like, while also going "nope..no...no..nononono...nope nope nope" as I'm trying to hold my phone with my RA flaring swollen hands, so tried to use my shoulder which didn't work well, and then with the other hand I was in some odd position of wanting to cover my ears while also wanting to hear the change... very confusing in this ra brain fog, so I looked like I was a crazy pers....ah, well, I am probably a crazy person so, that fits.... I'm also a massive overthinking over-explainer, as I've displayed here amd everywhere I go😬🙄🤦♀️😆🤷♀️😉😊
the squeaky noise sent shivers down my spine
Mine too
It’s never bothered me neither has fingernails on chalkboard, but packing tape sound THAT BOTHERS ME 💀
The art lifts my soul.
The sound then shatters it into a million pieces.
I can feel the sound
That’s how I feel too !! No likey
Your name should be the name of a book.
Well, I did write a book! By My Hands: A Potter’s Apprenticeship.
@@floriangadsby you were BORN for this I swear! Lol. I’ll give it a look, thank you!
This shit is why I could never work on pottery. Just the sound of ceramic pieces lightly coming into contact with each other makes me want to stab pencils in my ears 💀
It’s the same with metal on metal right?! I also hate this noise with a passion and it feels the same for me as metal on metal. Not shiny polished metal but the smooth, almost matte, metal finish. The sound of an Apple computer scraping against another.
Your pieces are so simple, consistent and beautiful.
Love to see these tricks of the trade.
This grinding sound is so satisfying
What’s wrong with your soul
Oh I finally found someone else who like the sound ❤
@@riddhimasharma7962 yep the sound is great, dont know what everyone is complaining about.
Lapping Compound, it's for more than just intake valves.
Its also for exhaust valves 😂
Thanks!
ASMR torture. They play this audio at Guantanamo.
I love the sound of stones scraping together ❤❤
Thanks for the warning 😅 i had enough time to turn my sound down before the nightmare inducing grinding began. That final spin was nice tho 😊
It went from nerve altering to major satisfaction to see clay to clay contact spin so effortlessly
Ah! From scratchy to smooth 😊
The ending product of that sound made me shiver that shit is satisfying
I was like: “why so much water though??…ah.”
That's not the only thing I do
You've made dozens of them in the same shape
I dont know why a lot of yall seem to hate the sound of the grinding. I find it quite nice
It must be so much louder irl though, no?
@@kurageh1menot really
thanks for caring this much about your craft
What a satisfying use of lapping
My ceramics teacher in college never showed us this method for getting lids to seat. I like it. I feel it would produce good results even without the paste.
That teapot is absolutely gorgeous.
My skin was legit crawling the entire video. I can FEEL the grinding in my bones.
Gorgeous.
The sound tickles my brain 🧠
I love the crunchy, ceramic sound. 🤤
The precision is amazing. Beautiful work
Respect this guy for sacrificing his ear
My soul left my body as soon as that sound hit my ears.
I can't stop hearing it 🥲
Still???🤔
Weird thing is love this sound. Especially when grinding in valve sits
Love the noises and the demonstrative video❤
The scratching puts chills in my skin
Beautiful teapot! ❤
I love the scrapy teacup sounds
I cannot be the only one who LOVES this sound
Thank You! That sound made my brain fall out and roll around on the living room floor.
what a delightful result!
Gotta love when items are self clearancing
i love the sounds lmao. When theyre not "squeaky" i love scratching
That's a nice set of intake teapots and exhaust teapots...
Even the finished products sound still makes my spine shiver just a bit
It just how these sounds like, by polishing it it at least make it smoother and subside the scratchy noises
Had my headphones on for this and the grinding noise almost sent me out of my skin. Asmr nightmare.
Aaaaand this is why no one should ever complain about the price for something that is both handmade and well made.
what is everyone talking about. I love the gritty sandy sound.
The grinding sound is actually quite soothing to me. 😅
One SINGULAR teapot?? You got the whole cast of beauty and the beast fixed up lol
You should get a suction cup on a stick(don’t know the exact term) but we use it when we grind down valves on a car for the exact same reason to make it seat better and create an air tight seal. I’m not sure if they make bigger ones but you just stick it on and spin it between your palms or fingers.
A plunger?
@@nobodycarewho that's the one!
👉🪠👌😂
Heavy edit is by far the most ink efficient splatling. It only costs 0.33% per shot. For reference, heavy splatling costs 0.625% per shot
Gee willikers!
That sound just summoned a demon from the depths of my soul💀💀💀
Finally I found it, evil asmr
So many people complaining about the sound which can't be avoided in this part of the craft.
That actually happened to me a couple of times at work, and i wish i could have told thoses shoppers to go away from me since I'm working and they didn't need anything. 😒
You need to loop a recording of the sound to play for like 10 minutes straight and play it at an annoyingly loud level until they run away out of their minds.
Nope!🤨
Don't know where that sound is coming from!🤔
Sorry!
Beautiful work!
I actually like the grindy noise. It must be very satisfying as it gradually fades away.
Same
Amen to that
i feel like im the only one, but i actually love that sound
Lapping compound: a simple but effective paste with larger chunks to remove large amounts of material, those chunks become finer and finer the more its used, practically polishing the surface towards the end of its use
It has many uses, beyond this, i see it mainly used in fixing (or fitting) valves for engines
These look amazing. ❤
Lovely result.
That grinding paste is also called lapping compound. Its also used to repair globe valve seats. Its kinda like sand mixed with slightly libricative paste
For a product that helps with opening things, look hard to open LOL. i love the pottery and the glazing and all the sounds 😊😊😊
Ah, the wonderful acoustics of ceramics.
Peaceful sound while she rotate the jar🤗
Am I the only one who actually enjoyed the scratching sound???
I feel like hearing that scraping for hours on end on a regular basis could be classified as a genuine form of torture
Am i the only one who loves the scraping sound
Beautiful work❤
You could try this with a drill and a threaded suction cup. Could make your life just a bit more relaxed.
Amazing such science what a good tutorial!!!
Only a true potter would know this trick.
When I was in middle school I quickly realized I could never work with pottery for no other reason then that noise and that dry grainy rubbing feeling
so valve lapping compound for the win
I've never heard of grinding paste before. Very neat.
The scraping made my neck twitch so hard omg I can’t 😭😭
I was expecting the sound to go away but now we got a grindy lid that spins
That sound raises every last hair on my arms
Love the crackle glaze!
Is it only me or do you guys gets also something like goosebumps if you hear this sound ? 😂
I absolutely love these
the irony of the grinding paste's lid grinding the most
You do something similar to make valves in an engine seat properly, however we use a suction cup on a drill bit to make it happen faster.
gotta pull out the thingamabob
Very reluctantly pressed the like button on this
Honestly i love the grinding noise;;;
That sound was such pain in ass
I love that sound
Normaly even through the screen I will shiver at these type of sounds but somehow I was fine.
A sound i hate 🔊😖😖
I liked the sounds!
Lovely teapot, slight question, what keeps the lid on when pouring? That lid would get pretty hot (no handle) and you haven't included the small foot thing you usually get on the lids teapots of that size, that hooks under the inside rim to help stabilise the lid.
The walls are quite thick, so I suppose the heat would take longer to get to it
I definitely feel that sound
I like the sound!
I used to hate the sound but now it’s more tolerable knowing it will be ok in the end
the lid grinding at the start felt like if sticking glowing hot wires into your bone marrow was a sound
I have never encountered so many people disliking this specific sound I don't understand the hate lol
You're making nice stuff!!!
The noise make me cry 😢
This material and sound is my final boss enemy
No god no why .. the sound 🤯
All the comments about how they hate the noise. I LOVE THE NOISE.
Such a proud bucket
