So exciting!!! You will love it!!!! Remember, it can be frustrating, but stick to it, slow steady hands, no jerky movements!! oh and thank you so much!! 🥰
I’m in the process of editing one right now. Almost done , but have to film and take photos..I absolutely plan on making videos. I really enjoy it! What is your favourite videos? Do you have any suggestion for me for future content?? Thanks for watching and supporting me ☺️
I'd love to make an oil/soap dispenser, but how do you measure the opening, taking into account clay shrinkage, for the diameter stopper to fit correctly???
Hi! I have since worked out that my clay needs 1" diameter for my soap dispenser and ¾" for my oil stoppers. I use a calliper to measure the stopper, then work out roughly 12-13% shrinkage and it seems to work for me now.
No preference really---but do love the voice over. You offer us an inside understanding of where your thoughts are going, even when there are "happy accidents" of which I make all the time...some not as happy as others. But nice to see someone else making them as well. Very novice/new to throwing, have hand built for a while and trying the wheel now. Thank you for the video----
Thank you for sharing your feedback. As I am a new channel and trying different things out I appreciate hearing people's preferences. I'm still learning how to film an edit to provide valuable content so thank you for taking the time to stop and watch my videos as well as introduce yourself by way of your comments!
During this video I made all the holes too big! Whoopsie! I now look up my clay shrink rate, which is available from the supplier, and add that percentage to the final size. In other words, I measure the cork/stopper I intend to use, then add anywhere from 12-14% (depending on the clay) to the end measurement to account for the shrink... hope that makes sense. 🥰
Hi Alaine! Im sooo happy you enjoyed my video...that was an old one...Im glad to hear that you found the Garrity Tool, I have a few of them but I use the round one the most! The crystal i use is one that I've had for eons, but you can get them at crystal shops, check google for crystals near me...you'd be amazed! Maybe even try amazon,
Hi Everyone, when you watch pottery videos do you prefer videos in 'real' time or the 2x increase speed? I know everyone is different, and at different skill levels, so hearing from you will help me with future videos, let me know your preference and why? Thanks!
I often skip ahead while you’re doing the routine throwing, but I’m fine with that. And I know that newbies often like real time. I would have spritzed that bottle’s top just a bit so I could carve it better. I do mostly hand building these days - pinching & slabs. Keep up your good work!
Trying to throw soap and oils bottle … and watching UA-cam videos… trying to figure the hight and width ……… ?what would be a good dimension to aim for ?
Hi Laura! Thank you!! As for the stick sponge, I couldn't find one that I liked, so i made it. I saw a video a long time ago on UA-cam, but honestly I can't remember who it was, which gave me the inspo to make one. maybe one day I'll do a video too ;) Thank for reaching out and for watching! Cheers
Hi Lorelie! I feel so terrible that I haven’t uploaded anything in such a long time, totally unexpected that this break would be like this! But the good news is, I did record some footage and now I need to edit…so I’m getting back on track! Thank you for your concern, yes I went through a lot but I am doing much, much better💕💕💕
I like the way you did this video I appreciate the 2x speed with the voice over.

@@SarahWaltonPottery you are doing a great job. Not sure why my text is struck out above but hoping you get the gist. We love your videos.
How much bigger do you make the necks to except the spouts?

Thanks

brilliant video! thanks for sharing xx :)
Thank you Jade!
I love that carving. What is that tool that you are using? Looks great.
Thank you for sharing.
Hi Debbie! Thank you so much! It’s called a Drag tool by Mudtools one end is wider then the other so you get a little variety in your carving 😊

I'm still new and prefer real time. I'd like to watch you center, open, and pull the walls. Thanks!

I throw oil bottles to 7-8 inches and width of 4-4.5 inch’s they will shrink down…what clay are you using?? Did you get some box?
B-mix!
@@SarahWaltonPottery wasn’t able to go to PSH , Tuckers had none in stock : (
Lovely! Where did you get that stick sponge? I keep looking for one and am having a hard time finding one! I'm in Canada too.
