@Matt Horne Pottery ~ such a lovely video, I haven't thrown in porcelain for a very long time, and I got out of throwing altogether for years due to various injuries etc., but I seem to be gradually working my way back to porcelain again. Thanks for sharing!
Hi Matt, You have great strength in your hands [ a great asset] and marvellous control too, each and every time you seem to know how much clay to leave at the top to be able to create the long skinny tops". Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us. Stay safe
That's Impressive! I've been at throwing all of two days. Cylinders And more cylinders! I can already tell I've become infatuated with this craft. Looking forward to learning a lot more! Thanks for the video by the way.
Wonderfull video! Thanks for sharing. I'm a beginner potter and i tried out porcelain for the first time yesterday. I noticed that in between cuts, when you used the blowtorch, you corrected the shape of the vase.. i ran into a similar situation yesterday when my claybody was too weak and my vase sank down during drying it with a hairdryer.. is there a good method to save the clay when this occurs?
Knew I would love this as soon as I heard the music 😍😍 then you have steam coming off your vessel after the blow torch like a badass and THEN you throw with all these tiny utensils??!! Beautiful work, can't wait to give it a go!
I was wondering exactly the same thing, but I think that is less of a problem with porcelain than it is with stoneware. But I haven't thrown in porcelain for years - so anyone with lots of porcelain experience that can answer that question for us?
@@Matthornepottery - each time before you inserted your stick inside to support the inside of the slender neck while you pulled it up from the outside, you dripped water inside. That is why people have been asking you about the water inside. Or is that amount of water left inside no problem with porcelain, like it might be with stoneware?
@@berneemartin4383 Most of the water I add goes on the outside - only a very minimal amount might go inside the neck just to prevent the tool from sticking but not enough to leave a puddle of water in the bottom or cause any issues with cracking.
To 'center' the clay so that it doesn't wobble from side to side. This also removes air bubbles / makes the clay all become a sort of uniform mass than internally having the clay go in different directions.
Shapes like this are definitely possible without the torch, especially one this size. The main issue you might run into is that sometimes the part where the neck meets the body of the form becomes weak and collapses due to the weight of the neck. The torch hardens the body and strengthens it to help support the weight of the neck. I'm fairly certain you can let it air dry a bit to achieve a similar effect.
i have thrown shapes just like this without a torch. most small shapes are achievable without a torch, dont let it deter you from throwing more complex shapes!

Me too! doing the mini wheel it's pretty cool takes lots of practice though. It's relaxing.
I could literally fall asleep to this haha. Great work.. Honestly amazing talent new favourite videos
You just called the video boring
I have! ASMR for the eyes. 😆

Sounds to me like maybe the vase had absorbed too much water before you dried it with the hairdryer.
@@Matthornepotteryis that why you use the rib so frequently? To reduce the amount of slip/water on the clay body?
Just loved it❤️,so satisfying
When you are adding water, presumably it is going inside the bottle? Do you leave it there to evaporate as the bottle dries? Great video 👌
No he doesn’t
This is one of my favorite songs to throw to you I love Glitch Mob

just wondering about if there is a pool of water left inside if you have to worry about that or not....

damn, you must be a really good lover.
Jess LOL, my thoughts exactly!!! Lmao
Same thing I thought!

Hahahaha!!
That's how potters do...
How do you avoid the clay to built up on the floor of the piece?
Really lovely!
I'm sure he's a great lover
Very nice work, thank you. Do you trim the bottom of these?
Yes I do trim the bottoms of my vases :)
Absolutely wonderful work!
But how about the water inside it? Is not it a problem?
No
Like the music too
Really useful - thanks for making the video. Where can one obtain the procelain you use? Is it specially formulated?
It's Audrey Blackman Porcelain
Thanks
Great video! Do you have to be concerned about standing water in your pot?
+Stephen Young Thanks :) no, i sponge the water out
That video was exhilarating!
This looks damn satisfying :D I was hypnotized for a while :D
Have you ever cut yourself scraping off clay from the metal rib Matt? I have, and it's like a "paper cut" very slight and extremely painful.
how long did you wait after using the blow torch on the lower half of the piece to start shaping?
Matt How do you work on the base, like cutting a foot into the base when you have a neck that is quite narrow? Is there a method that you use?
I like the song xx
Amazing , love from Iraq 🇮🇶
Kisses from France
What clay are you using?
What other pottery do you make and how about some glazing videos , please
What was the purpose of the torch?
I believe the torch is used to quickly dry the outside so the potter doesn't have to wait before continuing to finish the upper portion of the piece.
I think firing body keep body away from collapsing. the lower part barely sustaining weight of upper part.
this was amazing but how in the world is there no water inside? I'm super new to pottery...
I sponge the water out before closing in the neck and then any water added afterwards I try to only add to the outside of the piece.

Is Porcelain and clay are different ?, my ceramic course use clay
odkhuu porcelain is a type of clay
thank u Matt
porcelain is very expensive thats why only professionals use it
1:44 Now I understand why I can’t do small neck vases.
Sir what is this material used
naveen phogat porcelain clay
I don't know much about pottery - why does he at first draw the clay up, push it down and draw it up again a few times before forming the vase?
To 'center' the clay so that it doesn't wobble from side to side. This also removes air bubbles / makes the clay all become a sort of uniform mass than internally having the clay go in different directions.
Kid from Africa Thank you!
You'll hear what he is doing called wheel wedging quite often
YES THE SONG I LOVE THE XX
Okay...........but can I do it without the fancy torch?.........cuz I def don't have one but I'll attempt to throw that shit anyway
Shapes like this are definitely possible without the torch, especially one this size.

Im going to try something like this. Most likely will use a hear gun
i have thrown shapes just like this without a torch. most small shapes are achievable without a torch, dont let it deter you from throwing more complex shapes!
How many pounds of clay was this??
This was about 8oz
Im gonna definitly try this one :)
Nice weed pot!
كتير حلو فيكن تعملو اشكال ثانيه
I think u should have removed water from inside before making its neck.... well its a good work
I do remove water from the inside before closing in the necks of my pieces, it could just be the way this clip was edited
What's the purpose of the brazing torch?
