As a ceramic artist, it's really fun watching you go through this process and see your discoveries and your troubleshooting. Really looking forward to all the other videos in the series!
I dig a lot of historical tip sites as a bottle collector, and find lots of ceramics from the Victorian era, sometimes with preserved fingerprints! I also find lots of raw clay in my digging endeavours, as well as lead pipes and asbestos, shockingly....
Thanks. I mean sincerely, thanks. You never know when or if anything can turn your day around after hitting rock bottom, but you quite literally pottering about somehow inexplicably changed mine. You wonderful savant, I would shake your hand if I could.
Years ago I dug some clay while planting a tree in my yard. Missouri has lovely light grey clay with a smooth creamy feel and very little debris. But I had a small child, so never had time to do anything with it. Lovely to see you completing the experiment I had hoped to!
I love the oil lamp. Reminds me of the Roman ones I used to see on school trips to Colchester. I hope we get to see you trying it out if it survives the firing process.
The shell-grogged pot is such an interesting idea! I really hope it fires well and doesn't explode (though binge-watching the Pottery Throwdown has taught me that pots explode heartbreakingly frequently in the kiln, it seems a very stressful hobby!)
I've been a potter for 20 years, and you've done something I've never done: work with wild clay. I cannot wait to see your results!!! If you decide to continue your explorations in this way, I suggest fashioning for yourself a "puki." The UA-cam channel "Andy Ward's Ancient Pottery" would be an excellent resource, but I suspect you've found it already. Happy potting!
Your ceramics look really good, especially for being rusty and out of practice. If you were to do a series exploring bronze age technology in your area I'm sure we'd all be interested.
This was so interesting to watch! I work in a workshop that specialises in historical replica pottery and I enjoyed seeing your process, seems very well researched to me! The archaeological evidence suggests various techniques were used but adding a collar and/or coils to a pinch pot or pot formed in a mould is my favourite technique, and one certainly used by prehistoric potters. If you're struggling with getting the shape how you envision I recommend using wooden tools. With a wooden spoon you can bat the pot into shape. With a wooden hook you can press the middle of the pot out from the inside to get a satisfying rounded shape. Really fantastic idea for a series!
Although I have no artistic sensibilities, I find myself very invested in this series! Thank you to Atomic Shrimp for broadening my horizons. Looking forward to part 3!
I took a ceramics class in highschool and absolutely loved it. I am so happy to see you doing this project. I definitely appreciate the comparisons of different texture/techniques that you're doing as well!!
At first I came from the scambaiting videos and for a long time I thought I'd fine this stuff boring, but now when I actually give it a try, it's enjoyable and inspiring to watch! Keep on doing these videos!
Shrimp, your videos are one of the highlights of my week. As I grow up I hope to learn and enjoy a diverse range of hobbies and explorations as you do. Keep it up mate 👏
Fascinating to see these old techniques, especially the use of plastic sheets. I've never seen these in my everyday life, but I think they still exist for specific, specialist purposes. Strange to think how common they used to be. I'm popping over to watch the video where you fire them now.
I am an artist - this past summer I was on a residency and one of the other artists worked primarily with clay. She sourced local clay from the earth to make stuff out of. Didn't fire any of it (that's just how she works) but it was super cool and something I never would have considered.
I really like this series. It's cool to see you do everything from scratch and mostly using items you found in nature. I'm excited to see how to firing goes.
Really enjoying this series so far, will be good to see you cooking in your finished pots. The thumb pot / pinch pot name thing. It is probably that you use your thumb to shape it hence the thumb pot name. They end up as small dishes that you have salt and pepper in so you can put a pinch of seasoning in when cooking hence the pinch pot name. I enjoy all your videos, my favourites are the foraging ones and the 3 meals in a day for £1 type challenge ones. Also nice to see a fairly local UA-camr as I am just along the coast from you in Portsmouth.
From this process, I would say that clay pottery seems to be the original and ancient type of additive manufacturing since you add and layer material. It's also fascinating that these will last thousands of years.
In the colonial United States sand and clay were mixed together when crafting things, oftentimes included straw or hay to make earthen ovens, they called the mixture cob, maybe spelled differently but from what I've read it helped reduce the clay's natural tendency to shrink and crack when dried.
I felt I had seen your leaf thing somewhere in school or something.I looked it up and leaves can be painted with slip pressed down and removed or pressed down the whole inside of a bowl painted with slip and the leaf removed and also a teacher used a rolling pin to impress sturdy leaf patterns(a fern frond in her case) into a flat clay sheet then removing leaving a physical imprint.A family member is a potter and I learned a few basics of throwing on a wheel from her,which is a whole different thing.
This is a fascinating series. It was lovely to see your daughter make pots too (but oh! how long fingernails do damage things). I am looking forward to seeing how the firing and use all work out. Thank you for all the work you put into these videos.
I work for a pot bank and Have done for 6 years, I make anywhere from 400-6,000 peaces a day depending on item and type of machine I use and style and size of the item. The way I used to hobby craft at home is I made my own molds, ans slap the clay onto mold and press the molds together for the desired shape/pattern and let the clay dry naturally.. I used todo this and turnt out really well especially after I fired it and decorated and glazed it.. 😉 The best tip I can give you is in the clay itself.. the better the quality of clay the better the end result.. I prefer a firm clay it is way easier to work with.
i had this insane idea of going to a forest and picking up sticks then chiseling them into a more rectangular shape and gluing them together to make a checkers board and checkers pieces. my sticks were thrown out of the house as they were considered trash and i never got to realize my idea
Fantastic. This is as far as I got with a little thumb pot (yes that's what we call them too) that I made from garden clay as a child. I didn't fire it, but it dried out and I used it as a pen holder for years.
Funny that this video popped into my UA-cam notifications today. I was sorting some stuff out for my dad earlier and came across a piece of pottery I did in secondary school - I was probably 11/12. I don't think anything else survives from my schoolwork. It's an ashtray would you believe! Any teacher getting kids to make one today would be struck off!
I've wanted to use wild clay for ages. Perhaps this will inspire me to get on with it! Your pots etc look fabulous and I'm excited to see how they progress through firing.
Very interesting as always ! Althought the beggining would make an ideal parody material, with all this pot talk... Jokes aside, I remember learning that ceramics were very susceptible to imperfections (a slag piece of less than 10 micrometers can very well cause it to shatter in an industrial setting), so it suprised me that you could use sandy clay for making a pot. Still, your content make me rethink of the courses I've taken, and I'm able to enjoy it twice as much ! Thank you for your amazing work !
Always such great content. I'm really looking forward to seeing how these turn out. I realise you may have already fired the pots at this point but if you haven't, perhaps consider watching some of the clay pot videos from the 'primitive technology' channel.
Holy Mackerel!! It's not likely I could be any more impressed with your results. Regarding the pot that looked so remarkably like the one found your area from the Middle Ages, it reminded me that I sometimes wonder if there is such a thing as "genetic memory", (I guess that would assume some of your early ancestors were from the general area), I was reminded of how though my ancestors have mostly been Americans for several centuries and I was told that we were likely a mixture of many (European) nationalities, I've always had the feeling I was largely genetically a Brit. Many decades later it was confirmed by DNA testing, as I was curious about who my ancestors were. I've had zero contact with any paternal relatives including my "father", and of my maternal family only my mother lived within 3,000 miles throughout our lifetimes and we rarely spoke (the cost was much more than we could afford) or visited the others, it was just a very strong feeling. And your climate is perfect for me. I suppose our typical English surnames and some traditions and recipes could've been a tip off. I think I'll always remember before my third birthday when we were on a walk at the local beach when my mom pointed out a small garter snake in some leaves under a bush. I nearly jumped out of my skin when my eyes adjusted to the change from bright sunlight on water to the shade and I caught sight of it. It was my very first introduction to snakes. I wasn't afraid of any animals then (or now), but I had a reflexive startle response upon seeing the creature. My mom quickly told me in her calm voice not to be frightened, it was "just a snake". What was that, maybe an instinctual response? A memory in the genes? Both?🤔 "¯\_(ツ)_/¯" Anyway, I'm loving your work and all your interesting videos of course, but this is really good!! Thank you.
It's interesting that you bring up genetic memory; I just wrote a comment about it myself. And I experienced something similar to you: I was adopted as a baby, I was born and grew up in a big city. During my childhood and adolescence, I was sometimes in the country, in agricultural surroundings, and I always felt most at home there. If I was allowed, I went/ drove with the farmers to the animals and to the fields. I've never been disgusted by manure - cow dung, for example, smells very pleasant to me, really - I was never afraid of the animals but was absolutely fascinated by them and found it great to work physically and sometimes in the "dirt". I have never felt comfortable in the big city and dreamed of moving to the country from a young age. And agricultural subjects (and ancient domestic practices) have always interested me. As an adult, I looked for and found my biological parents. Well... on both my mother's and my father's side my ancestors were farmers for many centuries. So yes, I do think there is such a thing as genetic memory, sort of.
Thanks for this really interesting post into your ancestral trail. I find your comment on genetic memory really interesting. I'll do some research on this! All the best!
@@silva7493 Good morning, I don't live as rurally as I would like, but I've made my peace with it. You can't have everything you want, right? Have you ever had the opportunity to travel to Great Britain?
I have been filling cracks in wood recently. I found that the tools for application did not work as well as my fingers. Yes, I agree, the human hand is the best tools for pottery
I've been waiting for this video, and I haven't been a YT in a few days but today I had a feeling it might be up and here it is!! Love what's out so far and very excited to see the rest of this series c:
This series of videos is very enjoyable to watch.

maybe put it on a few pieces of wood with a void/hole in the center when you are trying to dry it upside down? it would support the rims and allow some airflow to dry the insides
The little lamp is like the ones made in this region by the Lenni Lenape Indians. We have terrific clay in NJ, pottery center. Some lamps like yours have been excavated locally.
I recently went to butser (near portsmouth), they were recreating a roman kiln schematic with UCL archaeology course and I threw on a roman kickwheel! Maybe an interesting read, I think its still there.
I want part 3 already! 😂 From time to time I like to come here and tell you how much I like your channel. If I was to make a YT channel, I'd want to do something like this. I've made a onion soup after watching one of the budget videos and, my next step will be to make a nettle soup.
The next project should be a plastic cup made from homemade atoms. Yes -- it is time for you to get/build a particle accelerator. The channel needs it.
Oh yes - a particle accelerator-cum-3D printer! Then I would print myself a few gold bars from discarded beer cans - takes a while, but is totally worth it!
Of course, the series starts with a video of hand-picking electrons from the local fields and forests. It's getting to be the right time of year for them
These two video really bring back good memories of my ceramics class back in high school X) I still have the pieces I made from then and is still sad that my plate cracks when it was firing up :(
As a ceramic artist, it's really fun watching you go through this process and see your discoveries and your troubleshooting. Really looking forward to all the other videos in the series!

Check out Andy Ward's Ancient Pottery (I think it is called), apparently he has a quite good success rate when fiering outdoors.
I thoroughly adore that oil lamp.

Lovely! I'm rooting for the shell one to succeed the most
0:48 Oh phew, those are maple leaves.
I thought you were using pot to make a pot; bit worried there for a second!
Oh, just love this cornucopia of a channel. The animations, the explanations, the when, where why... just love it.
Although I have no artistic sensibilities, I find myself very invested in this series! Thank you to Atomic Shrimp for broadening my horizons. Looking forward to part 3!
This is now an instant click video series. Love stuff like this.

Oh I love the lamp and the die, and that little wavy bowl. Looking forward to seeing the firing video and praying they all survive!
The episode of Time Team where Phil Harding was told about Shelly ware was excellent.
I'm really impressed, especially with the lamp.
I am *so* invested in this process.
I like that most things are the same, no matter how much time passes or where you're from.
Ohhh I'm so looking forward to part 3!

Been trying this myself and I think it’s very satisfying when you get it to dry without it cracking
My kind of content. Experimental and interesting. I'm eagerly awaiting the sequel.

I particularly love the little die!!! It would be cool to make a full set (d4, d8, d10 etc.) a d20 would be tricky.
Loving this series, can't wait for the next part! Nice to see Steph again :-)
Absolutely love this series, hope they all dry nicely
I'm LOVING these videos omg
This series of videos is very enjoyable to watch. Though I’m a little surprised shelly ware is a thing; when I was working in a fireclay works, a million years ago, lime contamination was potentially a big problem, as it can cause defects due to the absorption of moisture after firing. Hopefully, your shells have been ground finely enough and mixed in well enough to not create undue expansion related stresses.
Absolutely fascinating...I live in Lancashire in a place called Clayton-Le- Moors..the soil is very heavy clay...there used to be mining and clay extraction in these parts...so maybe i will have a go...
maybe put it on a few pieces of wood with a void/hole in the center when you are trying to dry it upside down? it would support the rims and allow some airflow to dry the insides
the tiny clay dice is so cute. though I doubt you'll actually be able to play with it
just what I needed before sleeping thanks a lot Shrimp
The little lamp is like the ones made in this region by the Lenni Lenape Indians. We have terrific clay in NJ, pottery center. Some lamps like yours have been excavated locally.
I recently went to butser (near portsmouth), they were recreating a roman kiln schematic with UCL archaeology course and I threw on a roman kickwheel! Maybe an interesting read, I think its still there.
That's where I went for my iron age cooking experience day a few years back
What an excellent series
You had me at 0:03.. resdy for part 3
I want part 3 already! 😂
From time to time I like to come here and tell you how much I like your channel. If I was to make a YT channel, I'd want to do something like this.
I've made a onion soup after watching one of the budget videos and, my next step will be to make a nettle soup.
I'm interested in this. I'll be making mine
Watching these videos is like a cleanse for my brain
Ancient people were very environmentally friendly, the archaeological record shows that they barely used plastic bottles for anything at all.
The next project should be a plastic cup made from homemade atoms. Yes -- it is time for you to get/build a particle accelerator. The channel needs it.
Oh yes - a particle accelerator-cum-3D printer! Then I would print myself a few gold bars from discarded beer cans - takes a while, but is totally worth it!
A plastic pot cup made from homemade crude oil
Of course, the series starts with a video of hand-picking electrons from the local fields and forests. It's getting to be the right time of year for them
If this was commented on Cody'sLab channel, I wouldn't even doubt he would try that, to be honest
Very good, thank you, looking forward to the next segment.
Interesting little series. I’m enjoying it
Really looking forward to the third part. Good luck
Brilliant series 👍
i love this entire thing!
No dogbowl? What will Eva eat out of during your "Budget challange - Stone Age version" episode?
Fun and interesting videos. I look forward to the rest of the series. PS - I wonder if a genie will inhabit your lamp.
this is an awesome series, thanks for the work doing this!
This is interesting. I love this series.
Fantastic! Part two already!
You can make anything interesting! Can't wait until the next video
Wow!one of your best. Congratulations
These two video really bring back good memories of my ceramics class back in high school X) I still have the pieces I made from then and is still sad that my plate cracks when it was firing up :(
