    This was a lot of fun to watch. I was a potter as a youth, and raku firing was a celebration, that of course required a feast. I haven't thrown pots in a long time, I found my medium in encaustic instead. But using the torch reminds me of the heat of the kiln.

    If I could have my time again I would love to try and become a potter. I can feel how it feels. This was a wonderful 13 minutes Simon.....so relaxing to watch. I could teach you to make cheese scones if you will teach me how to make the simplest of pots! Brilliant video Simon. xxx

      Take a class on it! You may not make something like this right off the bat but I take great enjoyment in hand-building silly little trinkets with air dry clay. The wheel is probably the most well known and most mesmerizing aspect of ceramics and pottery but I think the most fun I’ve experienced in ceramics classes has been making slab mugs with silly faces and building teapots shaped like coffins on Halloween.
