How do you make square pots?! I specifically have been trying to figure out how that's done and couldn't find videos.
Greg hi) As always, great videos and works)
What kind of music is playing at 5 minutes?
thank you. which music ? you mean the sound of my microwave? :D
@@Greg-ceramics no)))at 5:06 minutes
@@Greg-ceramics I saw it in the description😉
Greg, thanks a lot for the video. What brand and type of clay do you use?
It depends on the project, I use several. it depends if I'm looking for a particular rendering, or a technical particularity (mechanical resistance for example). At the moment I use the R&B brand a lot (a French clay)
Absolutely beautiful. A work of art.
@@Greg-ceramics Thanks for the answer! That's why I'm asking, you hardly ever use pot holders during glaze firing. I even have small 20-40 cm bend and I have to use coasters, I observed the same thing with the Japanese. What temperature is your clay?
@@BonsaiPots.SIC. Yes, that's why I use different clays, for example for the large pots I use a very grogged sandstone, but less pleasant to work with. I tested a lot, and there is no ideal clay. they all have their qualities and their defects.
And that's why I almost don't make big pots in colored clay (brown/red), clays that contain a lot of iron deform too much, and I haven't yet found the clay or the mixture that suits me.
And the oval shapes. I'm doing to know how I can do that.
I've already shown it in many making-ofs, don't hesitate to watch my other videos. ;)
Bonjour,
Définitivement plus de commande perso?
je ne pense pas que ça soit définitif, un jour j'en referai. Mais je ne veut pas me forcer, sinon mon travail s'en ressentira. ;)
Salut Greg , es ce cela serait possible de savoir le temps de cuisson ? stp
c'est vraiment 2 jours comme je l'ai mis dans a vidéo (du début à l'ouverture, ça ne chauffe pas 48h non stop)
